the official start of the holiday season

Ok.  I absolutely LOVE Christmas...It is definitely my favorite holiday [I'm sure I'll be discussing my love for Christmas in a forthcoming blog...stay tuned].  

Each year, stores put out Christmas stuff earlier and earlier.  This year, at least in Atlanta, Target had Christmas items out BEFORE Halloween had passed...It's getting ridiculous!  Soon, Christmas stuff will be out in July, or maybe even year round...

ANYWAY, now I have a new basis for what constitutes the beginning of the holiday season [which is much more appropriate than 'when the stores start selling Christmas stuff'] and that is 'when coffee shops bring out the holiday beverages'.

It made my day last week when I got to order a peppermint white mocha...mmm...

Christmas will be here before we know it, but in the mean time, drink on, coffee drinkers.  A delicious egg nog latte is waiting for you.
