WE GOT SNOW!
es, just what we’ve been waiting for! It blew like crazy, we ran around in it, got it into our eyelashes and froze our fingers, all the things snow’s supposed to do! Why does it feel like magic every single time? I don’t think I’ll ever grow out of loving the first snow.
Top-of-my-stove-world…
his weekend I’ll take pictures of lights at night, on our house, and downtown on Main Street, so all of you can see what Martha’s Vineyard looks like all lit up. xoxo Have a wonderful weekend! Do the Elf thing and try to buy at least one thing from a small shop you love. They need us more than ever. And we need them!
It’s a GIVING Thing….
ain Street in our town on the island of Martha’s Vineyard is three blocks long and one block up from the harbor. The freezing wind blows salt air, the charming old buildings are decorated in tiny white lights; the stores are serving cups of hot cider; the same guy, John, who’s been selling his Christmas trees next to the movie theatre for twenty years is there again this year; the Salvation Army bell is ringing, carolers are singing, shoppers are pink-cheeked and bundled up in colorful scarves and supporting our little town by buying up the place; and at the Art Cliff Diner (warm and cozy when you walk in, smelling like heaven and filled with people we know) there’s a full sized, stuffed green Grinch sitting on one of the barstools at the counter, wearing his Santa hat, like he’s a customer. 
ren’t they cute? I wanted a flower for the top, but my garden is frozen and poinsettias are too big! African violet is beautiful, takes a very good photo, but isn’t edible….No problem…. I didn’t eat it.
