After a two-week hiatus during which I ignored the internet – first due to illness and then due to family obligations – I do not want to let 2015 fizzle out without a quick message to all you lovely readers out there. I hope you had a nice end-of-year celebration, no matter what religion you may…
Today is another short and sweet one, as I am travelling home for the holidays.This is the last round-up before Christmas. And as such it is dominated by Christmassy posts.
