Santa came to our house
He and his little helper had presents for us all
We had a merry old time
Hope you did too.

About Me
- local alien
- I write. I create. I observe and record my life, after 40 years, in Greece. I love to create either with my handy craft, cooking or writing. Freeform always. Keep it simple, keep the interest, make it useful. I write about my garden sometimes, my grandchildren and the different culture and traditions. My New Zealand up bringing was so different from this way of life that I do truly feel like an alien at times. Greece is home but so is my kiwi 'homeland'. I am a citizen of both and an alien in both.
The table looks to be groaning with festive food. Happy Christmas to you and yours on Poros.
