All I Want for Christmas Is....

A Christmas Day blog post is likely to get lost amidst all the other revelries: family, food, music, presents, and more. Here at the Taylor-Laskowski household, we'll be enjoying all those things—and have already been indulging a couple of early Christmas presents. In lieu of a lengthy post here, how about a photo of a little boy enjoying his new Polar Express train?



Here's a bonus glimpse at a Christmas Eve present that Tara and I have already dived into!


And here's a close-up of one of our favorite ornaments—one that might well be of interest to the mystery-minded readers here as well.



Happy holidays to all—and best wishes for a great start to 2016!

    Just right, Art. Merry Christmas to you, and your family, and all my fellow SleuthSayers, past and present!

    MERRY CHRISTMAS to the Christian Sleuth Sayers (past and present) and Happy Holidays to those of other faiths.

    Perfect! (And just for the record so you feel read, please know you are the FIRST website or blog I visited this morning, even before doing presents or anything else. What can I say? I live with just my sister and she's still in bed. LOL) Merry Christmas!

    Merry Christmas to you and your family, Art, and to all others who celebrate this lovely holiday. And to all my star-brothers and star-sisters, I hope you're enjoying plenty of Chinese food and movies, just as my husband and I will be. (We're binge-watching Season Two of HOMELAND, actually--we finally decided to sample the series just last week, and we can't get enough. Talk about fast-moving thrillers!)

    Thanks, everyone! And Bonnie, I envy that Chinese food and Homeland too--we're big fans! Thanks everyone for chiming in--just catching up myself!

    Oh, that's fun! We're in Kansas and so my Mom has ornaments with the "Wizard of Oz" characters from the movie, including the Wicked Witch! Merry Christmas!

Welcome. Please feel free to comment.

Our corporate secretary is notoriously lax when it comes to comments trapped in the spam folder. It may take Velma a few days to notice, usually after digging in a bottom drawer for a packet of seamed hose, a .38, her flask, or a cigarette.

She’s also sarcastically flip-lipped, but where else can a P.I. find a gal who can wield a candlestick phone, a typewriter, and a gat all at the same time? So bear with us, we value your comment. Once she finishes her Fatima Long Gold.
