I don't write about advent calendars a lot because they're usually hit-or-miss, but this one is special. It certainly makes an excellent holiday gift idea, whether you're just wrapping it as a whole (daily surprises are good any time of the year), or intending it as a daily advent for the holiday season.

Wordless Wednesday: Walking in a Whisker Wonderland

 

We have been fortunate that our cat has shown only a very mild interest in the Christmas Tree over the years. I see online though, that others are not so lucky. Some of you are definitely facing various cat-astrophes and twinkling tinsel turmoil that would leave Santa's elves running for cover, lolol! 

I'm sorry that I'm laughing... Someone make a cat-proof tree that people love too!

12 Days of PERFUME! The Best Gift for Fragrance Lovers!!

 

Elevate your Holiday Gifting Game 

with the Ultimate Fragrance Experience!

I just ordered 12 perfume samples from Scent Split and thought to myself when they arrived that it was the best "12 Days of Christmas" gift idea ever, and I had given it to myself. 🥳Of course, I found one that I loved enough to buy a full-sized bottle of (maybe 2 or 3, lol) and that makes the order even better. What if, I wondered, someone copied the concept of this gift idea for a loved one of their own? I'm sure the gift recipient would be so appreciative and excited!

Discover the perfect twist on the "12 Days of Christmas" with 

an unforgettable gift idea that will leave fragrance-lovers swooning.

Picture this: 12 exquisite fragrance samples from Scent Split, 

each a tantalizing olfactory journey waiting to be explored.

But here's the where the magic happens: You let your gift recipient select the 12 samples of their choice. When the order arrives, they get to sample them and let you know which ones they loved. You pledge to gift them a full-sized bottle of the one that steals their heart the most. 

This is not just a present; it's an experience that lasts well beyond the holiday season.

Wordless Wednesday: Happy Thanksgiving!

 

Wishing you and yours a very Happy Thanksgiving!

Free Vinmeo Link to see "Surprised By Oxford!"

When faith and intellect intersect, you know there's going to be a story to tell. "Surprised by Oxford" is a movie based on a memoir by Caro Weber, a former scholar of and then first female dean at one of the Oxford University colleges. 

I don't usually watch romantic movies. They make me cry. And the classic and predictable scenes of true love did indeed leave me weepy, but it was such a good story as well. I recommend seeing it, if you're looking to relax and be entertained. It's worth watching.

Giveaway! Free Tickets to See "Journey to Bethlehem"

Many thanks to AFFIRM Films, Inc. for providing a sample of the product for this review. Opinions are 100% my own.

Journey to Bethlehem: "A young woman carrying an unimaginable responsibility. A young man torn between love and honor. A jealous king who will stop at nothing to keep his crown. This live-action Christmas musical adventure for the entire family weaves classic Christmas melodies with humor, faith and new pop songs in a retelling of the greatest story ever told—the story of Mary and Joseph and the birth of Jesus. A unique new entry into the collection of holiday classic movies, this epic Christmas musical is unlike any before it."

Wordless Wednesday: I'm So Thirsty

 

👀🤣

Been awhile since I ranted (good or bad). Here goes...

I had a big post of the pros and cons of teaching in my new school district written but for the sake of privacy (I would never want to offend students or parents), I have deleted it. It's stifling not to be able to share, but that is probably the way it should be.  I will tell you 2 true stories though. Both left, 'Wow, that's incredible!' impressions in my mind and on my heart.
