Sweet Thoughts before Ringing in …


 

Where does time go,my friends ?

Day in day out and here we are again ushering in a New Year ; almost counting down to 2015 and leaving behind every moment of sorrow or joy… We have to turn over a new leaf, make a gratitude list and focus only on our blessings and the joys that surround us …

I really feel happy and blessed that I have met some remarkable friends on the wonderful WordPress World and feel so close to them despite the distance that separates us.

Well,here are some Sweets and Flowers for you to show my gratitude for the interesting and captivating posts  you share with me and for your true friendship  ✿ ♡ ✿

Do You have a Big Sweet Tooth my Friends ? If so,please feel free and help yourselves … it’s all so very tempting and fresh ! Let’s start with some homemade Christmas sweets and if you don’t like them there is more to come …

Please take the Lid off ...

    What delicious pictures dear Doda. And you are tempting us with pommegranates like Hades did with Persephone, so that we will always be coming back to your lovely blog like she did to the Underworld.
    My faves were the oranges and I bet they are sweet, growing in the sunny Greece.
    Have a wonderful 2015 dear friend.
    Hugs ❤ 🙂

      • oh Doda, my partner of many years is Greek and he makes them for me!! My father was Italian from the south and “una faccia una razza” lol. I lived in Greece briefly years ago but speak the language poorly still!! My mother was Scottish and Irish- what a mix we are!! I love Greek food and culture and hope to get back there soon.
