'Tis the Season

I love the holiday season. There are so many exciting things about the holidays, but my favorite are the tastes and smells of the holidays.

I really think Eggnog should be an all-year-round thing.
You can't smell Cinnamon and Nutmeg and not think of the holidays. I think they put it in everything.

Sage. It reminds me of Thanksgiving turkey and stuffing.

I love the smell of pine. I think that is why I am such a huge fan of real Christmas trees.

Hot Chocolate with Candy Canes.

Pumpkin Ice Cream. Actually anything pumpkin is good. Cookies, cupcakes, pie.....all good!

I love the smell of snow. Something I've missed living in the south the past 3 winters. 

I know this isn't a smell or taste, but I love Christmas lights. I love driving around and seeing all the homes lit up, and all the main streets. There's something magical about Christmas lights. How can you be angry when walking down the street surrounded by beautiful lights?

I'm excited. Bring on the holidays!!
