December, the month of festivals, brightly coloured light shows, and celebrations, the sharing of gifts amoung family and friends and delightful tasting treats of sugar and spice. I love this time of the year!

I am in worst shape this year than I was last year. However, I will somehow manage to scrape together enough to share what I can. I will toss my coins into the kettles so that those out on the streets can have food and shelter from the cold nights. I will bake goodies with love and share them with my family and friends. While the base of my tree will be void of gifts, I will have a joyous celebration of the holiday in my own little way.
