The Daily Wreath: Winter
Winter has arrived in the Northern Hemisphere. The shortest day and longest night is upon us. And in my area, the arrival of many inches of new snow reinforces the arrival of the season.

A wonderful local, coffee shop that I'd never seen before... serving a great brew and tasty-looking food. And, as we approached this pretty evergreen wreath hung on the door. Yes, that's me …
