The Christmas tree behind me was almost two stories tall and so gorgeous! The scent of fir trees and woodsmoke was in the air, and you could hear the crackle of the logs in the fireplaces. There were lots of sparkly lights too. What a magical evening it was!

They have lots of holiday flavours, warm gingerbread spiked with orange, but honestly, I make them all  year round. They really are that good!

🎄
My Christmas tree has been up since November 1, but only because I had a photo shoot ini early November. It was too much work to take it down again, and frankly it has brightened the dark mornings. 🎄
The rest of the house took shape last week before our first Christmas party. I’m loving how this swag of greenery, pinecones, feathers and flowers made by my favourite florist @greenparlour looks on my Grandmother’s and my Mom’s sideboard in the kitchen. I think that both these lovely late ladies would approve! .
