Merry Christmas!!!

Is it too early? Sorry, I’m a bit out of control today.  I’ve already baked a pumpkin pie, filled my apartment with the scent of cinnamon, purchased advent calendars, lit the candles and “Jingles bells,” has been playing in the background all the while.  Yep, I’m one of those.  It’s just too romantic. Here, have a pie!
