David Hodston stood at a stove, spoon in hand, making a final taste test on this year's Christmas Eve chili. It was a delicate balance, David and Lilly preferred more heat from the Cayenne peppers, however with family visiting it can't be too hot for everyone else. The final test would of course be when it was served, but he was confident that things would come out properly. Earlier that day Lilly had spent much of the time baking, and after dinner she would inevitably want to watch the movie It's a Wonderful Life. Tomorrow the family would be back, and he would get to enjoy seeing his grandchildren open presents and such, and hopefully forget the troubles of being an AIF fleet admiral. He had left his personal communication device back at the admiralty, if anything too important happens a messenger could always be sent he figured. He then turned the stove down to simmer for a bit, as that was all that would be needed at this point.

OOC: a slight look into the Norris family tradition of Christmas Eve chili. Also I figure Hodston is old enough to have grandchildren, just look at his picture!
