Hi, everyone! Antonia here, and I am finally doing what you've all been waiting for! This is the 2022 holiday message blog. I know 你 all look 前锋, 期待 to it every year. Without further ado, I'll get right to everything I want to say.
I know for many of you, this has been a tough year. There have been so many deaths of so many notable people, and the year's not over yet. For me, this 年 is particularly tough with the loss of my grandfather. It'll be hard having 圣诞节 without him, but he would want us to have a good time. He wouldn't want our lives to stop because he's gone.
We enjoyed the cola roasted turkey from Thanksgiving so much, we decided to have it again for Christmas. Roast turkey is usually dry and lacking in flavor, but this type is really good. It was moist and quite sweet. In addition to the salt and pepper, we also added a lot of herbs to cut down the sweetness. It made an awesome 卤, 肉汁 too. We also enjoyed the 螃蟹 dip, so we'll be having that again. For sides, we'll have mixed greens, grilled sweet potatoes (we have an indoor grill), and green 豆 沙锅, 砂锅 (always a holiday staple for us). For dessert, we'll have 圣诞节 cookies. It's nice to know some things never change.
Feel free to tell me what you'll be doing this holiday season. If 你 don't have plans, that's okay too. I hope 你 have a wonderful and 安全 holiday season wherever 你 may be.
Peace and love,
-Antonia

A few hours later, Una and Everett were comfortably snuggled up together on the couch, sharing the last of Una's chocolates which lay in the open box between them, as the credits rolled on the movie.
"That was so good," murmured Una, her head resting on Everett's shoulder. "You know - I was looking 前锋, 期待 to your plans, whatever they were going to be, but I was really hoping we'd be able to watch this."
Everett gave a small laugh and shook his head. "I wish I'd known. I could have saved myself all this trouble."
Una grinned. "This year, our Valentine's 日 plans were on me," she said. "Next 年 I expect it to be your turn."
Everett felt a warm rush at the thought of 下一个 year, that Una was so certain they would be celebrating Valentine's 日 together 下一个 year. But then... of course, Everett though. He wouldn't have considered anything different.
"I 爱情 you, Una," he said.
"I 爱情 你 too, Everett," she said.
