Of course, it's always fun and relaxing to snuggle in with a cup of hot cocoa or tea and watch TV or read. I've seen a few Christmas movies so far but none that stand out as original. But...as far as reading goes, I just had to share this book. It's called...

DeleteI'll email you about the book. {{hugs}}
