The holiday season begins...

So, I already set up our Christmas decorations this weekend. Yes, it's still a bit early, but so what? They make the flat cosy and homey! And don't we all love bundling up with a cuppa and a book and spending a grey afternoon reading, surrounded by x-mas lights? Gee, that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.

But on a more Martha Stewardian note: Last year, I came across this beautiful photograph of a fellow bibliophile's Christmas tree. Isn't this wonderful?? I swear I wanted to build my own book tree this year but then we did decide against it after all. It's a pity though as I'm sure this would look great in our living room. But then... a few of our shelves would have beeen empty instead (as you sure need quite a few books for this one), which would have ruined the overall picture, I guess. So we'll stick with the good, old fir tree. But who knows... next year... maybe...?
