WINTER will be here as of this evening at 11:48 pm so tomorrow will be the first official day of WINTER ! Late dawn. Early sunset. Short day. Long night. For us in the Northern Hemisphere, the December solstice marks the longest night and shortest day of the year. Meanwhile, on the day of the December solstice, the Southern Hemisphere has its longest day and shortest night. Instead of the cold and snow we usually have we have warm temps and pouring rain . The rest of the week is a mix of sun and rain and mild , very strange weather for us but at least it isnt freezing cold .
Over the weekend I bought this tin of cookies and OH MY I cant stop snacking on them . I remembered them from years ago from a store we used to shop at called Marks & Spencer or as we called it Marks & Sparks it was a British store that importated all things British from cloths to food and even linnens , now that store is no longer it had shut down years ago over here . I had found these and the tin jogged my memory to back then and you will never guess where I got them , wait for it …. at Walmart yes I said Walmart they had hundreds of these tined cookies and I had to have a tin and now, well lets just say a lot of walking is to be done lol !
With a cuppa tea or two OH MY they are soo good I had forgoten what these tasted like and now I know and remember and please some one stop me lol . Good thing we aren’t burried in snow and I can still get out and do my walking cause I would have to be carried out at this rate lol talk about a chocolate covered cookie overload WOW !! oh well once a year for a day ot two wont hurt now will it lol !
Any who rainy day for us here so off I go to do some wraping of gifts and organizing foods for the holidays . Our kids are coming down this Christmas and will be here a day or two so that will be great . They are all grown up and have lives of their own and other sides of familys to do Christmas with but this year they are here . So we will have a house full .
I will be taking the rest of the week off from posting so I will thank you all for popping by and we wish you a safe and

I could eat the entire tin...lol
The weather is unseasonably warm, we reached 70 degrees today, I'm enjoying the milder temps, but still would like a dusting of snow for Christmas :)
Wishing you and yours there in 'The Cove' a Merry Christmas and a Happy and Healthy New Year my friend.
Hugs,
