Merry Christmas kim

MollyL

'Twas the day before Christmas
And all around the grid
Not a creature was stirring
Not even a squid
The stockings were hung
in the PB with care
In hopes that ole Santa Claus
soon would be there
Bea in her kerchief and Ru in his hat
Had just settled down
for a "best wines" chat
When all of a sudden
There arose such a clatter
That all players rushed
To see what was the matter
And then, what to their
word finding eyes did appear
But a shiny red sleigh,
and eight flying reindeer
The driver he slowed, taking a pause
And yes sirree kiddies, it was Santa Claus
"Hey Peri! Hey Une!
Hey Ruby! Hey Judi!
Hey Hurshy and 2Bit,
this grid is a beauty!
Keep finding those words
I know you'll do well"
And he turned and
they all heard the sound of a bell
Then they heard him exclaim
as he drove out of sight
"Merry Christmas to all
And to all a good night!"

This tea was given to me about 2 years ago and I never touched it. But I ran out of tea one day and decided to try it. Not crazy about the smell but I like how it settles my stomach.

Well as long as it serves it's purpose :)

Spilled some of that tea on me, hit my hip and a bit of my stomach. Doesn't look too bad but it stings a bit.
