I have a handwritten copy of the poem that your blog (and boat) are named after from my grandmother. Seeing your blog's name and the poem written beneath filled me with warm memories of her!

I love those cute mice dressed in their plaid clothes. And the chocolates are beautiful. I'd hate to unwrap one, but I do love chocolate, so it would be very tempting. Thank you for linking this Christmas magic for Favorite Things. laurieBargain Decorating with Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13582640485560903639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6065892893862596866.post-61898550575622680862010-12-05T15:52:46.387-06:002010-12-05T15:52:46.387-06:00Sarah, what cute little books.

LOVE your choice of books. I have never seen those but, they look so sweet. Glad you liked my choice of Jolly Old Santa Claus. I hope you do find your childhood copy. The one I share with you was a 1958 edition & was listed on EBay (there photos came out better than my scanned ones) & at that time the price was $158 with 11 bids & over 24 hours left on it. Hope you enjoy the holiday season & all it has to offer!
