These are some of the things in life that I enjoy, and which make me happy, inspire me, or put a smile on my face. Maybe some of them are yours too.  Let's share!

Sheep.  I love sheep. One of the things I was so amazed at when I first moved over to the U.K. was how many sheep there were.  Probably more sheep than people!

Christmas lights.  Some people just do it so well.  Simple and yet so very pretty.

Biscuits. I just love biscuits.

Ginger cats  . . .  they are loaded with personality. I just might be a bit biased.

to hear a little song, read a good poem, 
see a fine picture, and, 
if it were possible, 
to speak a few reasonable words.”

In The English Kitchen today, Maritime Gumdrop Cake. It wouldn't be Christmas without it. It, too, is one of my favorite things!

I have a ton of stuff to do today. I had thought to do a video of me decorating my Christmas Cake, but I am not sure I have the time to do a whole video. I think I will just have to decorate it and then share it finished. I just don't have the time to fit it all in as I would have wanted to. 

I have developed this rash across my lower front neck. I hope it is not shingles. It is very itchy. It showed up a few days ago and has been spreading.  I have been trying very hard to not scratch it.  It's very irritating. 

I had a nice time at lunch yesterday with dad, Hazel and Cindy. The place was so busy. We thought if we went at 1 pm the lunch rush would have been over, but the place was banging!  I couldn't believe it. Everyone must have had the same idea!

And with that I wish you a lovely day today. Stay safe and warm, be happy, and don't forget!
