Oh, there’s no place like home for the holidays
‘Cause no matter how far away you roam
When you pine for the sunshine of a friendly gaze
For the holidays you can’t beat home sweet home!
There’s no place like home

As much as I abhor pushing a commercial…I LOVE this one….it makes me tear up every single time and I just want to hug Frankie ❤   If you’re more of a traditionalist, here’s the Perry Como version (which is also excellent). ❤

On to business!  LAQ has a new FREE group gift skin out named Natasha.  She comes in BOM and with appliers in ALL the tones….and did you catch the freeeeeee part!?  The close up below is taken on the medium-high graphics setting using Annan Adored Optimal Skin windlight setting and no editing or added cosmetics at all…click, crop, upload, bam. This is exactly what Natasha looks like in the 1.0 tone (my go-to tone) on the Noelle head using the Natasha shape.  Soooo purty ❤

Other timely shopping opportunities include the Nutcracker from Never Totally Dead currently at Shop and Hop for 50% off and their Gingerbread house…which is a gift!  Another gift is the group fee…..free during the month of December! ❤

It’s Saturday…so my Sat. morning ritual was on like Donkey Kong….coffee and scrolling through the list for The Saturday Sale!  I picked up the TeaBunny earrings that match the glasses currently @ The Liaison Collaborative and the NOA dress from N-Core.  This was actually the sale for last week, but it’s still out, as are the matching boots…both still for 75L!  This week’s sale over there are glitter pumps and stockings…got em.  I already had the reindeer from Jian, but if you don’t, they’re only 75L (along with their cute little barn), you should go pick them up… cause….look at that face! ❤
