god, this school semester has flown by so fast! Suddenly it's christmas again. The time to be joyful, caring, giving and compassionate. I love this time of year - we eat lots of good food, spend time with family and friends, give and receive presents (yess!).

and one of my new year's resolutions is becoming a better blogger . even though next semester is probably one of the most busiest ever. I can start now though .

here's some stuff to set you in a real christmasy mood.

MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR
