Mama!
A perfect day for hot soup, hot chocolate and whipcream by the fire (or maybe a single malt). If I were close I'd throw on the snowshoes and head over with the cocoa
(what is this symbol? is it a face blowing a kiss? That'll do.)
Sure wish you could come!! We'd have a ball. LOL Just sitting here working at my new book, going out into the main room occasionally to stoke the fire. It seems to eat up the firewood faster when the wind blows, for some reason. I baked half a chicken, red potatoes and yams for lunch and shared a bit with the old hound. The soup will be ready for supper tonight. Thick tomato, with a nice grilled cheese sandwich of my home made wheat bread. Almost makes me hungry already!
I'm all ready to indulge myself with a wee dram of Glenlivet just before bedtime, in honor of the new year. But I don't stay up for midnight. Might wake up about then, but might not. It will come one way or another.

And I like this smiley too!

Come by any time!
