Everyone has visions of sugarplums at this point in the year. I just hope everyone takes time for themselves to just sit and look at the Christmas tree lights, to contemplate whatever meaning he/she has for this season, to enjoy family and/or friends. It can be a tough time for many.
My heart does go out to the tornado victims/towns/families, etc who are suffering from such terrible destruction. I realize I am posting this under a wine meme, but that is the vast weirdness of the season. I admit when watching the news, I thought of so many eagerly awaiting Christmas with houses decorated, presents bought, and plans for celebration. And boom - it's all gone and lives are lost.
That is humbling.
We have our penguin light
The bar area is decorated
I don't even have this sweatshirt anymore, but it's amusing
I did bake some peanut butter cookies this year. More to come. The aromas - yum
Peace to all
I'll take a peanut butter cookie!
