Your photos of the harbor boats with their lights and trees reminds me of my youth growing up in Corpus Christi, TX. Then it was know as the "sparkling city by the sea", and it was. <br />Thanks for sharing the goodness of this book. I'm going to order one to add to my Christmas books. <br />I&#Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01873375271470225199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7078574679445351119.post-63118289613950550172016-12-19T14:30:26.471-08:002016-12-19T14:30:26.471-08:00Jain, your photos are, as always, filled with magi...Jain, your photos are, as always, filled with magic (I saw that the first time we met, and I was captivated by your blog), but you are also a fantastic writer. The body of your work, with the beach diaries and your adventures by the sea, are infused with humor, wit, and keen observations. Today, I was swept away with giddy delight as I watched your Christmas by the Sea, with chocolate martinis Rattlebridge Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07270992062886735035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7078574679445351119.post-23432448355082702192016-12-19T13:48:18.783-08:002016-12-19T13:48:18.783-08:00I always love your sea decor Jain, and your light ...I always love your sea decor Jain, and your light house reminds me of the one in Hilton Head, SC. What can be more fun than a holiday boat parade with the twinkling lights reflected in the water, magical! And to sip on a chocolate martini, and nibble on a cherry bleu cheese crostini, why Santa himself is likely to stop by!

And I even spied one of Santa's reindeer in your yard. Santa will be sure to find you with your lighthouse and spectacular light display. The boat parade is certainly unique! I'm licking my lips just thinking about watching it with one of your chocolate martinis and that yummy crostini in hand.

You must have had a whale of a good time gathering all your nautical details from your glass bubble ornaments, lanterns, driftwood, shore birds and mermaid! I can’t believe how Dasher or Dancer showed up to join the fun and merriment too!!<br /> <br />Of course seeing all Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16398643098588491009noreply@blogger.com
