St. Nicholas Day


It looked like this.

 

SNOW, but not much.

Treats for the boys...


You can't go wrong with a new twist on The Gift of the Magi

And papa...


Adorable label!

And me.


St. Nick heard me talking about those vintage English espresso cups


And look -- our first card of the season!


Thank you, Kristina -- it's lovely!
 


And now, maybe we all can have a good laugh at how I apparently prefer to style my photo objects in left-to-right-slant fashion.  Hope it didn't make you seasick...

The marmalade label reminds me of how we girls used to have to dress up in outfits like that on March first, Saint David's day. The stove pipe hats were always problematical. Your cup and saucer is very pretty.

We forgot to "do" St. Nicholas this year. Complete rubbish, we are. I'm moving to your house for next advent.

I just got the same seed catalog on Monday. I said NO GARDEN in 2012...now I may have to reconsider.

Love the tea cup!
