Puzzled

(2010's puzzle)

I always get to this point of the year and think "Yes, I do have traditions!"

Which is different than in October, when holiday season starts,

And I think "I have no family traditions, these poor kids are so deprived!"

It is a fine line trying to introduce new things, compensate for last minute changes and keep old traditions.

One of my favorite traditions is putting together a 1500+ puzzle between Christmas and New Years.

This year's was done a day faster than previous years.

Perhaps a testament to how much time I spent in the kitchen this year watching Bones.
