Hooves and horns...

Up on the roof there arose such a clatter...

This handsome fellow {and he is handsome} is from the lens of Sharon Montrose.

Shiny bits...

Jingle bells, sugar cookies, peppermint infused vodka, pine needles, sugar plums, & mistletoe...

 

{This glimpse of shiny vintage spheres is from Cafe Cartolina.}

Snow flakes and pine needles....

No words are needed to describe this crisp glimpse of pine needles and snowflakes.

{The winter wonderland on the left was found here.  The winter wonderland on the right was found here.}

Solid precipitation...

Yesterday brought the first sprinkling of solid precipitation, covering the ground like a knit blanket and making me lust after this fireplace.  Then liquid precipitation washed it all away {except for my mantle craving, of course}.

{This gorgeous dichotomy of simultaneously warm and cold was found at Tomorrow's Parties.}

Gray and gorgeous...

Forty-one degrees outside this morning - which is {exactly} forty-one degrees shy of my ideal temperature. 

{These lovely shades of overcast skies were lingering on This is Glamorous.}
