Darling idea to make a special occasion even more fun


Every year, Mr. Christmas Heart and I look forward to watching the Charlie Brown Christmas Special.

We both vividly remember anxiously waiting for it to come on TV when we were kids; we have a copy of it on DVD now, but there is still something magical about catching it when it airs for the first time on TV.

I always make hot chocolate, and we drink it out of special mugs, just for this occasion.

This year, I'll be adorning my mugs with these!






Aren't they darling? Her website as other cute ideas; she adapted this herself, and hers would work better I think, because the others seem to me like they'd get soggy too quickly to stay on the edge?

 Some websites that offer the cookie cutters...looks like they're sold out for now, so check the sites later!

And of course I have to add this in; after almost 40 years, I STILL get goosebumps watching it!
