The weather outside is frightful, but inside the cats are napping, the tree lights are twinkling, the paper whites are blooming, the tea is steeping, and we're writing thank you's. There's much to be thankful for this year, especially the love of family and friends. I hope that wherever you are, you are safe and warm.
Have a wonderful year to come, with many more delights to treasure and share with us here.

Thank you dear Gigi! I am so enjoying our snow days...it was such perfect timing to have this peaceful snow day right after everyone made it safely home after Christmas too. I may just make it a "Snow Week":)
ReplyDeletehappy happy days to you....would love to swap some of our heat and humidity for your snow and cooler climes :)
ReplyDeleteThere is something magical about the snow and the way it makes things quiet, makes us all slow down. What could be better than peace and slowness for this time of year?
ReplyDeleteThank you for all the beauty and goodness you've brought to us this year. Best wishes for a wonderful new year ahead.
Hi, Gigi! Be keeping warm, safe and basking in the holiday glow... :o) Hope this finds you having a cozy Christmas holiday. We’re just emerging from some very festive days just now. Later in the week is my birthday–hubby’s taking me out to lunch. Then we ring in New Year already–it’s a great time just now! Happy Days, my friend ((HUGS))
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Gigi! Hope you have a wonderful new year!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it the best?! At least for those of us lucky enough not to have to travel! Pour me another cup of tea, would you please?
ReplyDeleteThank you notes! I haven't started on mine yet, but here's a good place: Thank you so much for the poetry. I've only skimmed it so far, but coming up in January will be a quiet day and many cups of tea and a chance for careful reading. It is such an ongoing pleasure to make your acquaintance, Gigi. I look forward to more blogging friendship in 2011. Bee xx
ReplyDeleteI love the sound of this. Especially the tea part.
ReplyDeleteCats napping caught my attention too. I think maybe I'll add "get a cat" to my 2011 list of things.
Happy happy 2011 to you Gigi, I treasure you.
