ETC: It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas

Three things have happened in the last couple days to get me thinking about Christmas already.


1. These Lindt peppermint chocolates truffles, with 60% dark cocoa! If I was Oprah, I'd be giving them out on My Favorites Things episode. Oh, my.

I bought a bag, and I keep them in my underwear drawer, and every now and then I go to my room and pop one in my mouth. One will fit perfectly and no one else can see what I'm eating. They are my own special treat and I do not share with my family, hence the hiding place

I've noticed that they are a limited time offer. I'll have to stock up.




2. It's the Blogging Advent Tour! Sign ups at Marg's and Kaliana's went fast and furious. It was fun last year to see other traditions about Christmas.

There were music posts, and movie posts, and trivia, plays, family traditions, and lots of cookie recipes. mmmm.







3. The Book Blogger Christmas Swap is being organized by Dewey and Nymeth. I always like Secret Santa at work, getting that little treat in your mailbox just makes your day. This will be my real mailbox, so even better.

Think how much fun it will be with fellow readers sharing their love of books, or just a little treat.

Check at dewey's or nymeth's for more details, but the important thing is to send an email by November 18.



Looks like lots of interesting blogging activity going on in the weeks leading up to Christmas.
