Yes. The aromas of Christmas time can just whirl you away to a happy holiday moment. I have some things called Scentsicles. They are sticks (colored green) that come with their own hangers to place on trees, wreaths, etc. They have several scents and the one in my room right now is Snow Berry Wreath... :home:Quote:

Sat in front of the fire last night with a mug of hot chocolate and watched a Hallmark Christmas movie with my wife (and four dogs)... :tree:
The signs and smells of Autumn. Then I temporarily pause for Halloween and the month of October. Then November and Thanksgiving are pretty much the beginning of the Christmas season (albeit different decorations). I just can't believe how short the Christmas season is. You have to be really mindful of each day or :::whoosh::: it's over.
I broke out my hot chocolate heater and bought some white hot chocolate, marshmallows and short bread to enjoy. I am impatiently waiting for it to snow so I can get real festive but I am beginning to feel the spirit!
Sounds cozy. Being in Canada, I'd imagine it won't be long now until you get snow.Quote:

Driving downtown and seeing all the Christmas lights on the street poles and store fronts... :home:
I've been diffusing peppermint and vanilla essential oils downstairs and balsam fir and vanilla in my bedroom for scents of the season. I also have peppermint in my car.
Right now? Knowing there are only minutes before Christmas is here... :presents1:
Lighting candles on an Advent wreath.
Very nice. Just lighting candles on the dining room table centerpiece the first meal I have there... :waving:
Snow.
Hallmark still showing Christmas movies on specific days of the week... :santa2:
I know it's so nice!Quote:
