Halloween has passed and the holiday season is upon us. I love this time of year. I love the busyness of it. Going to this family gathering, running to that store for a great deal on the perfect gift, and the countless hours spent making everything just right.Through the hustle and bustle of the season I also like to take time for the holiday comforts. These comforts are things that keep me happy and energized during the most demanding and joyful time of the year.
First on that list is coffee. I drink coffee year round but come early November my little coffee shop starts selling flavored coffee. There are two especially for Christmas time, Frosty’s Favorite and Jingle Bell Java. My heart leaps at the very thought of these tasty delights.
Next is my fireplace. I love the warm crackling of a wood burning fireplace. I grew up in a historic home. Our only source of heat was a wood stove. The fireplace really brings back those precious childhood memories of snuggling up next to the stove.
Christmas music is another sweet holiday comfort. My Mom has indoctrinated me from a young age to love Christmas music. I probably know all the words to every holiday tune that Burl Ives and Bing Crosby ever uttered. What a simple and great joy it is to listen to their beautiful voices sing such positive message of hope and love.
Lastly is the tremendous gift of a good night of sleep. Hubs and I were blessed enough to purchase a new mattress earlier this year. We indulged in a wonderfully comfortable and large Tempur-Pedic king sized mattress. We have both enjoyed the many restful nights and ease of our back pain. A good night’s rest is such a blessing during the holiday season.
