The longest night of the year,

Winter Solstice arrives

Happy Solstice Jo! Always love your pics! And referring to a previous post of yours, we do have a British Emporium close by and are able to get English goodies... some even Gluten Free.

I'm looking forward to having daylight a little bit longer each day.

Your photos show such great views of candlelight. I always enjoy your decorating with red and green. Your posts remind me each Christmas of my Aunt Eileen, a full Brit, who was a war bride to my Uncle. She loved her country and red a green would be good colors for here too.
