Coastal Cottage Christmas Tour 2025
Merry Christmas, friends! Welcome to our little cottage by the sea :). You’ll have to picture a warm greeting at the door, two pups jumping for joy, a big hug with a hello, a plate of Christmas cookies and a steaming mug of coffee or tea waiting for you just around the corner. You’ll really have to imagine the cookies because I haven’t made any yet :). Oh, well. I’m not Martha, but maybe I’ll get the cookies done by Christmas day.
