It's a Holiday Linky! This party is open over Christmas and New Years until January 4. You are welcome to add old and new holiday links plus your usual recipes, projects and great ideas at any time. Taking time off from blogging is understandable -- but I also know checking out link parties is THE perfect downtime activity for others. If you want to pin holiday ideas for next year or a great recipe for your celebration, please remember to do that from the original creator's website. Have fun! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all!!

I started blogging for several reasons, one of which was to learn something new. Have the last couple of weeks been a learning experience!!! And a blogger's worst nightmare -- being invisible!!!
