Christmas 2008! Excitement Coming!

Almost every day my five year old asks me to show her how long it is until Christmas. I hold up my hands and flash ten fingers, and we count by tens, 'til I reach the approximate number. It looks like forever to her, but we adults know all too well, don't we, that it's just around the corner!

I usually start shopping in September, and because of this I never have to make Christmas-Eve runs to the store for last minute items. Christmas Eve is far too important a night to "spend" it--literally--shopping! It's the best atmospheric night of the year for either a quiet Yuletide night before a fire, with family, around the tree, or at a party with a group. However you choose to spend it, you should be enjoying the night. Scroll down this blog to get a simple "Christmas Scent" recipe, set it brewing on the stove or in a crock-pot and take a few minutes, or heck, a few hours, to soak in the ambience of Christmas Eve.

I'll be talking a lot more about wonderful ways to "return to what it's all about," so stay tuned! And I'm preparing some fabulous Christmas-themed giveaways to commenters, so subscribe today! You might just win a free copy of Regency House Christmas, too! (Five will be given away.)

The Christmas Book is Growing

Did you know that when you get "Regency House Christmas" you've bought all future additions and add-ons--at no extra cost? It's like making an investment in a fund that grows so that your final value is much greater than your initial cost. I research and add new material every year, but you only pay once, upon purchase, for the ebook. This is a great deal, and wonderful news for any Christmas lover or history buff--especially regency fans, of course. So get a copy soon--don't wait for the next Christmas season to come around, because before next season I may have to put an end to this perk. I do love researching the Regency, however, so rest assured that more material is definitely forthcoming! You'll love it.

PS: Technical difficulties getting the new Index and Table of Contents working properly, made me stop posting this December. I didn't feel right continuing to advertise a product I was hoping to offer in a much-improved format, only to be foiled by the technical stuff. If you have the ebook, don't worry; you WILL get the "new and improved ebook" when it is finally as I want it. You'll find it easier to navigate, bigger than ever, and with a full index. The Regency? You've got to love it.
