Happy Saint Nick's Day!

-
"'Twas the night before Christmas,
when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring,
not even a mouse;
The stockings were hung
by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas
soon would be there..."

Happy St. Nick's Day!! We are having fun celebrating by sipping some hot tea out of our new teacups and enjoying some festive Tunnock's Tea Cakes all sent to us by our sweet Blogging Friend Lady Linda! Thank you so much, what a pleasant surprise to find in our mailbox!!  I'll be posting a picture of our lovely teacups on Thursday! So be watching!
