There’s no reason to let the colder temps chill your seasonal spirit this winter. Alpaca Collections cuts winter chill with some of the finest woolen wear available — wool from the coats of llamas. “Alpaca is thermal, so it adapts to the body’s temperature,” said storeowner Santiago Ortega. “If it’s cold, alpaca keeps you warm, and when it’s warm, you won’t suffocate; it’s also very soft to wear.” The Alpaca Collection at 1225 Prospect St. in La Jolla caters mainly to women, with a small selection of items for men. The store is a colorful showcase of Alpaca coats, sweaters, shawls, scarves, hats and socks. Colors vary from naturally colored, eco-friendly alpaca to eco-friendly colored styles in browns, black, red, blues, greens, etc., depending on each season. Soft colorful blankets and throws are a popular store item.

The day before Thanksgiving, mere hours before the family was due to arrive, a possum died in the crawl space under my kitchen permeating it with an odor like, well, a dead possum. But for Christmas, we were going to L.A. where in the rarest but happiest of occasions, we would have both sons, their wives, and all five grandtots under the same roof. Life doesn’t get any better than that.
