HOLIDAY TIME- IT COULD BE HANUKAH, KWANZA, CHRISTMAS OR ANY OTHER CELEBRATION

 It's that time of year when we start to think of the upcoming holidays. There are many different cultures in Canada and each has their own celebrations.  That may be Kwanza, Hanukah, or Christmas which is the most celebrated religious holiday in this country.  We haven't even finished Halloween  yet everywhere you see signs of upcoming Christmas.  I don't mind because I love Christmas.  We have had such a terrible time this year that seeing all the Christmas decor cheers people up or so it has been mentioned by psychiatrists.  We all need some cheer. Its something to look forward to.  This year will definitely be different from how we have celebrated in the past but we can still enjoy it. The most important thing is to be safe and healthy.  We have all learned how to communicate with friends and family using social platforms like zoom, facetime and various other programs.  I will be checking out more decor ideas and posting here.

I am so looking forward to Christmas this year as many of us are that I am starting this post in October.  Went for a drive to Springridge Farm in Milton.  It's a regular stop for us around Thanksgiving as well as when it is getting to the Christmas season.  They have the most beautiful decor items for your home and for gift giving, everything from items for children right to all the adults on your list.  The wonderful preserves are some of the best I have tasted.  If you like beautiful things and especially Christmas items this is a definite stop for you.

I am very sure I will be visiting many more retailers to check out their holiday offerings  but until then here are a few pictures of what you will find at Springridge Farm.
