Putting up the Christmas trees.  Finding awesome gifts.  Finding great deals.  Putting a new spin on decorating.  Stealing away to a quiet place to wrap/bag/box presents.  Listening at Christmas Music.  Finally getting to really enjoy some crisp, mornings and cool evenings in the south. Hiding presents.  Anticipation.  Reds, silvers, greens, and golds. Finding that “cave gift.” 

A “cave gift” is that present that makes the recipient squeal with delight, and want to scurry off somewhere to be alone so they can inspect, admire, and joyfully experience their gift.  It’s the type of gift that lets you know you’ve hit the nail on the head when you decided to purchase it.  It puts to rest all your fears that they might not like the gift.  Mastering the cave gift is an art.  It’s an ever unfolding venture that is many times hit or miss.  Most years, I strive to find my special recipients at least one…

Christmas is about making your loved ones smile, and being happy that they’re happy.  Like Thanksgiving, it’s about good food, good company, and spending quality time with family and friends.    Come here for Christmas feel-good sentiments, pictures, and recipes.  Go ahead and make yourself at home.
