We have the lovely theme of ‘Christmas’ to use this week as our prompt for TJ’s household haiku challenge
Christmas means lots of things to me, one of them is hearing Christmas carols which always make me feel festive.
Out Christmas shopping
Stop for coffee and carols
Christmas is coming!
Another is my Christmas tableware. Now it is now that often that we actually have Christmas dinner at home, but I love my Christmas gravy boat…

Mr Grump smashed it last year
Sister replaced it!

presents under tree
fluffy white snow in the yard
ice on the windows
children waking up
way too early for my likes

Number one has a lovely Christmas feel and I am sure you could make a wonderful Christmas story out of number two! “Once upon a time there lived a gravy boat on a shelf in a charming lady’s ample larder overflowing with Christmas treats….”

I love these–both the one with the gazebo scene, and the gravy boat (which is SO Lovely!!)…alas, I’m a gravy hog, so could really use a pitcher rather than a little “boat”!

Hello, and thanks for stopping by. I am Judy, in my (very) early fifties and decided that life definitely gets more interesting as it goes on! I am a wife and a mum and have just finished University as a Registered Nurse, after having worked as an Associate Practitioner in the NHS. I am also a poet and the author of my debut book, 'Rhymes of the Times.' I love to laugh, and I love rhyming words too, so I joined the two together, and my book was born. I am currently working on another book in the series also. I am a prolific blogger and enjoy writing funny stories, anecdotes, and anything really that takes my fancy.
