other than from you, i have never heard of "sand tarts" please share...

Is it wrong to totally crave champagne? Because I want to spend the next week in a semi-state of drunkenness (or sleep in, either way).

I def see you in Paris at Christmas time....you should do it!

i agree with you on the paris thing. it would probably be wonderful to spend one christmas in the city of lights!

merry chrismas, janet! michele sent me today. :)

Paris in ANYTIME sounds good, not just at holiday time.

The best time to visit Edinburgh is during the New Year - the place is ricking on New Years Eve.

Merry Christmas, Janet :-)

Christmas in Hawaii would be WEIRD because it would be WARM.

Of course, it was 60 in Georgia on Christmas this year...
