merry and bright






There is joy this holiday season, but also there is loneliness. And if that's you, I just want to say hello.

Here are some wonderful ice pictures.

Dylan Thomas reads A Child's Christmas in Wales, here.

I hope your days are filled with warmth and love, good books, delicious food,
and the beauty of nature.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, dear friends.

xo, Jen

  7. I just bought two copies of A Child's Christmas in Wales for two special people who had never heard of it! How is that possible? It's the best Christmas story ever!! At least I think so.

    Merry Christmas, Jen. I look forward to more of your wonderful posts in the New Year. xoxo Shelley

    1. It's a treasure--I read it and sometimes listen to it (that voice!) every Christmas.

      Your flowers (and the cats) make posting easy. xo
