What a wonderful piece to come back with....but what else would I expect....I'm copying it and forwarding it to my mother's computer so she can print it to add to all the Christmas lore she always crams my granddaughters with at the dinner table. So glad to see you back here!!! Merry Christmas in every way it can be said and a Happy New Year to you and your lovely good wife....and, yes, can't wait to hear about your newfound domestic bliss!

I'm so glad you came back here! I hadn't thought of it for a while because all of my Czechoslovakian-speaking family have passed on, but they always wished each other, "'Prejeme Vam Vesele Vanoce'". I really miss the houska that no one ever bakes anymore and the brownies leaving candy on the window sills all the month of December. And seldom do I ever hear the song "Good King Wenceslaus" anymore.

Yeah, I am married -- I stand before the entire world, the luckiest man on the planet. Found her right here at home -- known her all my life -- one of those friendship to romance deals.I'll have to write about homelife a little more.
Take care -- been catching up with your work, too-- always great reads!

Hiya Naut! Merry Christmas!
Or Merry Kishmash, as it were -- I was saying that a lot after about my eighth Sangria...

How very nice to see you, and with such an information-laden post! Thanks to you, I found out that I can speak perfect Navajo under certain circumstances! I've been known to wish people a 'Merry Kishmash' on a number of occasions when the Christmas cheer was flowing as freely as it should! And let me take this opportunity to wish you a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
