Hello, Patti,
This is a very relaxing poem. My favorite is (and I hope to be doing this with a new kitty if I could ever get those damn stains off my carpet!):
My puppies snore softly at my side
And I take another sip of my Christmas brew
Merry Christmas!!

Hi, Nome;
I hope you have a lovely Christmas. Hope you get a new kitty soon,

I got the stains on the carpet to acceptable terms -- now deodorizing with baking soda (and the damn vacuum stops working. Hopefully, it is only overheated.) I hope after this to get the new kitty!

I can just picture you sitting quietly and enjoying the moment. This is a well penned poem allowing the reader another glimpse of YOU.
I enjoyed this and will probably head to make coffee and add a little umph, inspired by you. Thanks for sharing.
Love,
Brigitte

I can't even get myself to decorate for Christmas. Holidays can be hard for me.

Your poem is cheery though and I'm glad you treat yourself this time of year:)

I like Blackberry Brandy, but it takes just a little, I have to be careful. It has been years since I have had any coffee let alone Brandy. I would really enjoy it with all my infirmities, but that is the reason I can't have it. Not fair is it. LOL Have one for me.xx Nancy

Hi, Nancy;
You know, if I had one for everyone that asked that today, it would be an incredibly unproductive day!!

But, I will be sure to have a bit of brandy for you this week,

At my house, the cheer would come from 50% contentment and 50% Baileys. I haven't had Baileys in years. Thanks for reminding me. I'll pick some up today.

Hi, Thomas;
Baileys comes in flavors now. I got myself three bottles - one original, one cherry cordial, and one vanilla.

They are all wonderful!

Well written and well done.
I also like a little Baileys in my coffee this time of your. I sometimes wonder why we only do such things in December. And why do we only drink eggnog in December?
Thanks for sharing another fun one.
Sharon

Hi, Sharon;
We only have eggnog in our grocery stores from Thanksgiving until New Years. I've never made it from scratch,

Enjoy your day,
