Merry Christmas!

By Booksnob

Wherever you are in the world, and whoever you’re with, I wish you all a very Merry Christmas! Thank you for reading my blog this year; whether you’ve been around since the beginning or just started following last week, it’s been a joy to have you reading along, and I look forward to many more lovely conversations in 2013!

As a little treat to help you relax and settle into the Christmas mood, here is a link to the beautiful Truman Capote short story, A Christmas Memory. Do take some time to sit down with a cup of tea or glass of wine and read it this Christmas Eve; it’s such a lovely evocation of Christmas and the memories it invokes as we age. I read it the other night and it brought a tear to my eye; I hope it will give some of you the opportunity to smile and think over the many happy Christmases you have had over the years, and give you fresh excitement, amidst the seemingly endless preparations, for tomorrow.

See you all in the New Year!
