let's dialog.

Yesterday I spent half the day at Barnes and Noble. I had my annual Starbucks hot chocolate {thanks Michael} and looked at books for hours and hours. I can't imagine a world without books, especially hardbacks.

The line for Nooks was insane. I am not a fan. I put a couple of books on my iPad and didn't see the appeal except maybe it would be good for trips.  I can't see replacing actual books with online copies. I would miss the feel, weight and smell of the real thing.

Books + Christmas Music + Books + Hot Chocolate + Books = Utopia

So, the other day I shared my favorite classic Christmas song. Well, this is my favorite non-traditional Christmas song. This song drips magic to me.



"How was I so lucky to have found you?"
