People taking the time to say hello and share a bit of themselves through their cards and letters is another gift of Christmastime.

The food (cream, cheese, cream cheese, sugar, oil, nuts, potatoes, oranges and the combinations thereof) and the food memories.

Ditto to all of these things, I love them all. I especially love seeing the lights everywhere, their warm glow and symbolism always get to me.
I love this. I think I'll jump back on the 52 blessings bandwagon in 2010. I missed it this year.
Merry Christmas!
A savior. I've been gifted with a savior. Oh my, does it get any better?
How funny that you posted that song as I just purchased it on itunes earlier today. Strange coincidence.
I've loved your blessings. If I could manage to blog more frequently, I'd adopt it. You are so richly blessed.
I all of these things -- the music, the kindness, the unselfishness, the security. So great!
