Visions of Sugarplums

Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, 

everything is softer and more beautiful.  

~Norman Vincent Peale

Decorated a little over the weekend; 

thought I'd post a little Christmas vignette.

I purchased a poinsettia - 

I'm not a big fan of them, but this one caught my eye.

Here's my Goodwill treasure being put to good use. 

I actually have been using it quite a bit.

This squirrel nutcracker is another treasure I picked up in a second-hand store.

He is so darling that I keep him out year-round.
