Santa Came This Year (2024)

Santa made an appearance, at the angel house this year.

In a great thing, he brought me my package from Belgium. Woot!

Gina sent me a box with an angel on it, some very yummy christmas tree cookies, tea and coffee, with little ceramic cups, napkins, a chocolate santa, and some presents for Makenna.

All were appreciated, even the Makenna's presents.

I got my Husband Maker's Mark Bourbon, and some Sprite, so he can have a Bourbon Seven, occasionally.

I also got him a book I read about, called "The Maternal Genetic Lineages of Ashkenazic Jews". It claims that all Ashkenazic Jews originate from just 4 women.

Using DNA, they did the study and found this to be true.

Both of us will probably read it, because the concept is intriguing.

Where in the world were these 4 women? I guess we will find out when we do.

  1. Hi! So good the package arrived in time for X-mas, and maybe Makenna's treats can be given to your grandcat? She probably wouldn't mind. And what I like the most about family tree research, is to try and follow the maternal lineages, which is often harder to do with the surnames changing and all. I signed up for a more detailed plan at My Heritage, which allows me to see so many more records of research. I have my DNA results connected to it all, so that makes it even more interesting. Have fun reading the book!

  2. Hey Gina! Again, thanks so much for the gifts. The three of us discussed that very thing, so Taro will be getting the treats.
