Hot Cocoa

When better than to have hot cocoa than in December?

Sent to Heleen last Christmas. It was a bit slow to arrive and did not make it in time for Santa Claus.

26 days from Texas

This nicely written envelope from Holly took an unexpected 26 days to travel from Texas to Ohio. The writing is bright orange, which, if you're a regular reader of the blog, you know the scanner hates neon.

Here's a photo to compare.

And the perfect card inside, matching the cardinals that camp out in the backyard.

Update:

A link to a post with pictures of cardinals in the back yard.
