Christmas Moon

It's hard to capture the gorgeous colour of a rising moon with an ordinary camera - the sky is an elusive thing and seeing it through your own eyes is always so much more beautiful. This moon was a soft buttery yellow, not at all like the pale thing in the photo, but this is the best I could do. The photo was taken at 9.07pm, when it's still quite light outside here.

It's now Christmas Eve, and I am totally relaxed as I need do nothing for the next 2 days - except make some Cranberry & Chocolate Chip biscotti for the kids. My daughter and boyfriend arrive at lunchtime on Boxing Day. The hardest part of all this free time is trying to decide what to work on!

Today's Dumb Feng Shui quote: " Clear out the clutter in your life that is draining your energy - old phone books, messy cutlery drawers, clothes and relatives".

Merry Christmas everyone!
