Over on Clare's world famous Three Beautiful Things blog, she said some lovely things the other day about the Christmasisation of HeroPress Towers (i.e. the home of Rachel and myself), so I thought I would return the favour with my own "three beautiful things" about this lovely time of year.
(1) "I love coming into Tim and Rachel's house at Christmas: it's so full of details. I catch sight of a Christmas apron, and a plate of biscuits for Santa, and a ceramic nativity. Their Christmas tree is the throw-it-all-on variety, and it looks absolutely magical, with something wonderful on each branch." - Clare, Three Beautiful Things.
(2) Snow!
Who doesn't love snow? This picture comes from the fall we had back in February, but more is predicted for this week.(3) Presents!
Presents that don't just come in the form of the physical objects left under the tree by some passing red-suited superhero, but those that come in the form of wonderful TV specials, filling up on turkey-based meals and the joy of spending time with one's family.Ho! Ho! Ho!

4 persons have something to say about this!:
Here on the other side of the Downs, the weather goes a bti funny, so although the conditions are right for snow, and we have some predicted for Friday, the skies are clear and blue. And cold! We got hit by the snow in February, but I'm not holding out much hope for this week.
There was a decent snowfall yesterday - which made everything white for a bit - but it melted away quite quickly. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a heavy fall tomorrow (although Rachel's hoping the forecast's wrong as she's off to a wedding in the Midlands for the weekend)
Oooer, meta-3BT.
I might make the fact that you made one of my 3BTs a beautiful thing on your blog a beautiful thing tomorrow.
Cheers Tim.
Thus summoning Ouroboros (or Jörmungandr) to our little corner of the Interwebs and ushering in the Ragnarok you were predicting the other day ;D
