Ten Reasons I Love Christmas

To kick off the Christmas season, I'm giving you my top ten reasons I love Christmas:
1. The English Walnuts, Brazil Nuts, Almonds, and Chestnuts that seem to only be available during the holidays.
2. Eggnog
3. Christmas movies - Miracle on 34th Street, Scrooge, Christmas Vacation, It's a Wonderful Life.......
4. Salvation Army bell ringers. You know it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas when you hear that ching, ching, ching.
5. The aroma of Christmas cookies - Jilda always makes Christmas cookies with all our nieces and nephews (now great-nieces and nephews). It's something they (we) all look forward to.
6. Christmas music - December, The Carpenters Christmas, Celtic Christmas.........
7. Jilda's world famous hot apple cider
8. Christmas gatherings with friends, and family.
9. Bubble lights
10. The Peace of Christmas, even when I know it's only for a while.


  1. An excellent list, Sir.


  2. You know, the first thing we saw coming to BC were the Christmas Carolers in the city. I was so over joyed to hear them sing and they looked at me like I was nuts .
    I guess they are not used to being appreciated. But I was soo happy.
    It made me feel so good.

  3. And the crisp cold frosty sunny days!!! Awwww merry Christmas!! Take care
