Advent Calendar 2016 - Day 9

A beautiful night/day 9 of Advent.

Advent Calendar 2016 -Day 8

A smart idea. Turn wine glasses into Reindeer and Rudolph candle holders for the holidays. Granted the fatter one looks more like Chip 'n' Dale from Disney.

Today's TRUE Advent Calendar post.

  There is something familiar about this tree stand yet I can not remember where I have seen it before. I do not know if I had one like this when I was real small or if my grandmother had one but I know I've seen one before in person and it is now bugging me.

A cinnamon Winter Solstice star to help make your home smell more nice and festive.

Advent Calendar 2016 - Day 5

  I want this post to a very nice one because of my long absence from my blog and Advent calendar. I may have a few days where I will be able to write a post every day and then try to schedule future ones for later.

 I think this is special. The Italian artist  Giovanni Battista Salvi Madonna and Child. I can not find the year in which this was painted but it is a sweet and gentle depiction of the Holy Mother and Child.

Even the animals are getting ready for the coming Yule with some help from Father Christmas.

 Nothing wrong with a little Yule log cake to eat.

Advent Calendar 2016 - Day 1

A good day of Advent to all. Hope you will have a nice holiday season and that it doesn't go to the birds.

Tea for Tuesday #22

A perfect quote by C.S. Lewis about tea and books. This coming year I think I may buy The Chronicles of Narnia or at the very least The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.

Tribute

The Ace of Spades

was the last card

Lemmy played.

A good-bye

to Hawkeye

from Trapper John.

This Will Be an Everlasting Love

from Unforgettable too.

Spiders returned to Mars

Ziggy truly became Stardust in the sky

and the world cried.

The Dogma of Gruber and Snape

left A Promise of A Little Chaos

but they left us with a Sense and Sensibility

as we had A Song of Lunch

with Love Actually.

Then an Eagle took flight

into another Tequila Sunrise

As The American Breed

decided to Bend Me, Shape Me

Then told me to

Step Out of Your Mind.

While a Mott

decide to go with

All the Young Dudes.

A Tower of Power

had Squib Cakes

with a Soul Vaccination

that was Sparkling in the Sand.

Dallas said he would be

A Long Time Gone

on Wooden Ships

Helplessly Hoping
