They are playing vuvuzela outside-- and they have finally stopped playing the damn Christmas music.
It is going to be a good year.

Hmmm.....I can't think. If you find one, send him my way when you're done!
It is going to be a good year.
Thank goodness for that! I'm certainly glad to see the back of the last one. Hope it's a good one for you when it comes :)

Date: 2013-01-01 01:20 am (UTC)I wrote New Year's kisses into the end of the Christmas story I just sold, so I re-read them today. Between that and the mistletoe, it let them get away with more than they'd otherwise have dared!

Date: 2013-01-01 07:43 am (UTC)Over here it was rather lame, no tall dark, nor fair strangers at all :) But we had fireworks for free from my window, drank some sparkly, had some fun.
Of course 2013 will be great. I changed my icon :)

Yes, that was the original idea of brining coal with you when you went out first footing. You put a lump of coal in the hearth of every house you visited to help keep the fire burning throughout the year. I remember folk doing it when I was a kid.
In Scotland, Santa is supposed to bring naughty children....nothing!

Over here New Year's Eve means drinking too much champagne (as it does everywhere else) and eating oliebollen, which are deep fried sweet dumplings filled with raisins and currants.

Tall dark strangers are very much in demand this year. Luckily I may have one left...

Ooh these sounds yummy! I don't have much of a sweet tooth but I love anything with raisins and currents. And of course too much champagne always helps :)

You do? Mind sending him in this direction? ;-)
Oliebollen are delicious! But then I am like you when it comes to raisins and currants. I, for one, am not a big fan of chocolate but I adore Cadbury Fruit and Nut!
