My girlfriend S gave me a box of these chocolate biscotti for Christmas. They are perfect dipped into a hot drink!
I called my uncle who moved into a senior's home this past fall. I had to call the home several times until I finally got through. I was able to speak to my uncle's partner first. Then she woke him out of a light nap so I could wish him a Merry Christmas. They will try to go to one of his sisters for Christmas dinner, but it depends on how he is feeling, mentally or otherwise. He has some Alzheimer's/Dementia. Apparently some virus has broken out on the 4th floor of the residence. My uncle is on the 2nd floor so hopefully all will be okay for Christmas as the residence is planning a Christmas party. His partner is faithfully there with him every day, although she has her own apartment in the city.

Nice that she is there each day but also, very sad story. All the way around.
Your uncle is lucky that he is well cared for and still has visitors and people who care. The biscotti look great! Hugs, Valerie
hopefully the 4th floor's sickness will calm down
What a sweet story about your uncle's partner. So sorry he has dementia. :-( That chocolate biscotti looks yummy!
It's nice that your uncle lives comfortably and I hope he is well enough to have Christmas dinner with family.
How wonderful that his partner is there to support him. Hopefully he is well enough over the holidays to visit with loved ones.
The biscotti look delicious. I'm glad she is able to be there for him and I hope they have a wonderful holiday.
