Tammy likes Christmas Gnomes so I decided to get her one that is near life size.

On a movie roll this Christmas with Family Switch tonight. Fairly goofy movie but fun for the family.

Starting Christmas Eve with an amazing cup of Dreamy Melon from the ever amazing Pair Cupworks.

Dreamy Melon! – We’ve sold some pretty great coffees this year, but this one is probably the top. Clean, crisp sucrose sweetness, and fragrant melon flavor – this marvelous flavor is a result of meticulous processing including constant monitoring, temperature control, and finely tuned fermentation.

A truly delightful cup. Very subtle flavor tones. Smooth with very little bite. Would agree on the clean, crisp taste. One of the best coffees I’ve ever had. β˜•οΈ

If you set out to make a modern version of Die Hard you would end up with exactly Carry-On. It is a fast paced action movie set in an airport on Christmas Eve and the good guys win in the end. I thought Jason Bateman was great in it. 🍿
