Chew on This | Caramel Apple Sangria

Walking through the foyer last evening, I noticed, out of the corner of my eye, lots of light coming from the neighboring yard. Looking fully out the window, I saw the beginnings of Christmas. White lights in pines, crawling up maples, and adorning roof tops. Peeking further down the road, more lights. Colorful lights. Crisp white lights. All beautiful. All cheerful. All festive.

I love how our neighbors embrace and celebrate the season. I also love that they waited until Thanksgiving was over before switching on the twinkle.

Our Thanksgiving was lovely. Picturesque. I hope your Thanksgiving was, too. We celebrated the good in our lives. The good in the world. There was much to be toasted. And we toasted in style with this delicious libation. Caramel Apple Sangria - good for any of your holiday celebrations. Also, good for a cozy evening in front of the fire. Enjoy!!
