Oh, it’s been a while. According to (some) blogger etiquette, I’m not supposed to remind you of that, but I wanted to say that I’ve missed being here. Having been well-occupied with children and domestic Canadian life, writing has dropped to the bottom of the priority list. This is unfortunate but due to be addressed as soon as December 25th is just a memory. In the meanwhile, here’s a little something to stir up your brain cells.
If I were diabolical, I would post this on Christmas Night, when everybody’s brain is in a fog from too much food and drink. However, since I will be in the same state and wouldn’t remember to do that, they’re going up now.
Each phrase is a clue to a well-known Christmas carol. Good luck! (Answers will be posted….later. When depends on how desperate you get!)
