Be it a wonderful bouquet of flowers from a dear friend or a family meal I would like to wish you all special moments this holiday season. I gave some bouquets of flowers as gifts this year so it was especially nice to receive one myself this evening. Iβd like to share it with all friends and visitors to my blog.
My kitchen is filled with the wonderful smell of soup cooking at the moment. Sorry… no smelly vision here! So many kitchens and houses throughout the world will have their own aromas. Enjoy yours and have a wonderful Christmas.
Flowers above in vase at my front door to keep them cool.
A wonderful Christmas to you too Shirl…soup sounds delicious and tasty! Our festivities will start tomorrow with brunch for our family and friends…

Hi Shirl, I hope you had a wonderful Christmas day! Red rpses are such a nice gift to receive:)
How generous of you to share your lovely flowers with others for Christmas. I wish I was a neighbor or friend so I could get one too:) There are no blooms in my garden at this time of year…except birds;)
Happy holidays! Jan
