Those December days...

The cold days of December are for sipping honey vanilla chamomile tea in pretty teacups...


They are for cups of hazelnut lattes warming up your hands while you stroll the early morning gardens...  


For fleece pajamas and comfy beds 

Oh yes.... and for thick warm socks too! 

only I'm not such a fan of socks....  I know ;)


Cold December days are for little lights diluting shadows...


Until daylight comes around knocking on your door... 


...inviting you to start off your day feeling calm, refreshed, and joyful.  You’re more likely to sustain that positive vibe as the day goes on if you do... 


December days are also for cottontail rabbits and the eerie cries coming from the woods when you're outside pulling weeds.


The first time I heard these strange sounds I thoughts I was imagining them....
Cries that sound like a human baby in pain can make anyone's hair stand on end
but then I learned that it was just the rabbits...


Since the woods are both, habitats to the cottontail as well as the wild cats, one can only imagine what goes in there.  The human-like screaming noises I hear coming from the woods must probably are related to the stress and pain caused by felines... can you imagine?  It is very sad, and creepy... Any how, where was I?  Oh yes yes, December days... they are for hearty soups on chilly evenings...


And for giving and receiving...

The other day I was nicely surprised with a box filled with all sorts of goodies

from my friend Bonnie...


I was a happy little girl taking things out of the box...

That was so nice and thoughtful of her...

Thank you dear Bonnie!


I wanted to wallpaper one of the walls in our guest bathroom using fabric the other day...


But I wasn't happy with how it looked, so I took it down and tried something else...
Although I like this fabric much better I still couldn't make up my mind
and at the end left the emptied white wall as was...  
What do you think.... which is your favorite?


I hope you're feeling all holiday happy my friends... I know I am. We were planning on heading down to FL again for Christmas, but decided to just relax and take it easy here at home...  so now that we're staying, how about you come for a cup of tea, or coffee one of these days? We can even share some pie... ;)


Do have a Merry Christmas!

and remember:


Be blessed!

  2. I happene to purchase a nice tin of Harney & Sons cam vanilla tea as one of my little sister's small gifts this year, hope she likes it. How can she not? And she isn't sleeping well, so I am hoping it helps her.

    I love all your pics - but I absolutely cannot stand that sound animals make at their demise....I know it is natural, but ick. I feel ya on that one.

    May your new year be blessed with good health and abundant peace and joy. : - )
