My world, right now, is a bit short on sparkles, I’m using all my energy to write personal Christmas cards… but it’s true, I live with up to 9 candles lit around me and they DO sparkle indeed. Walks in the woods are always good to for the soul and if all fails, there’s the charm of our little lake and the ‘Christmas village’ with strings of lights, hot drinks, a talk here and there.
your village sounds lovely, and I hope your personal world is better soon -p.s. I’m loving the village that you sent my way, it adds wonderful sparkles to my day
Oh … welcome to the woods indeed …

I hope that comes true, because at the moment the torrential rain here is dampening all possibilities. 😉
Best wishes, Pete.
