The two of us, each enjoying a cup of hot cocoa after our Christmas night feast, sitting by the fire keeping toasty while the polar vortex roars outside. The kids and grandkids have gone home and the excitement of the day with family has waned. But the sense of goodwill remains.
Written for Greg’s Five Word Weekly Challenge, where the words are excitement | cocoa | feast | polar | goodwill.
This, That, and the Other

Thankyou for that. Yes I am missing out on a polar vortex down here. I remember when living in England we would get these cold snaps coming down from the pole. They were absolutely freezing…….

I can almost hear Nat King Cole the Mel Torme’s/Bob Wells classic, “The Christmas Song” in the background.
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire,
Jack Frost nipping at your nose…
