Some of my favorite memories of celebrating Christmas is caroling. 
I've been off-line since Wednesday because my router went kaput! I'm sorry I haven't been able to respond to any of the comments left from WW. Thanks to all of you who did comment...I really appreciate it!
I don't have any photos of anything long in my collection, so here is what I long for: Peaceful places and solitude...
The Hummingbird feeder I got at the Wren's Nest is working miracles! I hung the feeder right outside on the front patio, tucked closely to a big hanging fern so she'd feel protected. I've seen her feasting away twice. Mo told me that this was a great feeder and boy, was he ever right!
Take a peek at the Wren's Nest and see if this feeder would work for you. There are many other neat things to see, too, if feeders aren't for you.

Sarge - You say it's your birthday;
well, Happy Birthday to ya!!!
We have the sweetest little hummingbird in our yard. I was out watering the other day and she hovered about, keeping an eye on me. As she flitted from branch to branch, the sun would catch the iridescence of her feathers: Her wings became a vivid blue-green and her little head would flash a gorgeous magenta. It was just for a fleeting moment and only when the sun shone directly on her. I thought such a simple thing was such a wondrous gift. I love color and when it comes in small doses with mighty expectations, the brilliance is simply overwhelming.
We had to cut down the last of the trumpet vine that was still in bloom, in order to fix our fence. I ordered a feeder from Mo's "The Wren's Nest," and it arrived today. I quickly cooked up some sugar water for her and hope it will get her through the winter. It's the least I can do to thank her for the joy of her presence in my yard.
Miss Bee - this one's for you!!! I bet they didn't have a swimming pool on board this old lady of the ocean. I have no idea what year this was supposed to be, and I've refused to watch "The Titanic," just on general principles.
I imagine all of the rich and famous dressed to the nines! Can you imagine if FiFi and Foo-Foo had walked into the dining room with the bicycle pants and comb-over???
I only have two packages to ship - I'm so fortunate my family lives close by!
The hard frost we had last winter killed all of my hibiscus but I was told not to remove them until spring; sure enough, what looked dead truly wasn't! New growth was bursting forth and I remembered to have faith in all situations.
