Santa Claus is Comming to Town! by The Supremes, absolute Funny

You better watch out!
Better not cry!
Better not pout!
I'm telling you why,
Santa Claus is comin' to town.

He's making a list
and checking it twice.
He's going to find out who's naughty and nice.
Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town.

He sees when you're sleeping.
He knows when you're awake.
He knows if you've been bad or good.
So be good for goodness sake!

You better watch out!
Better not cry!
Better not pout!
I'm telling you why,
Santa Claus is comin' to town.

With little tin horns and little toy drums,
rootie-toot-toots and rum-a-tum tums.
Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town.

Curly head dolls that toddle and coo,
elephants, boats and kiddie cars too.
Santa Claus is comin' to town.

The kids and girls in boyland
will have a jubilee.
They're going to build a toyland town,
all around the Christmas tree.

You better watch out!
Better not cry!
Better not pout!
I'm telling you why,
Santa Claus is comin' to town.

Don´t forget the Stairs!

Feelings of Christmas

The peace you can feel while walking in snow;

The warmth flowing from a fireplace aglow;

The wishes of all little boys and girls;

The candy canes made in peppermint swirls;

The joy in your heart when you see the tree;

The good of giving when you hear, “For me!”

The shyness of the young under mistletoe;

The presents wrapped with ribbons and bows;

The love for God on His Son’s day of birth;

The hopes that all have a season of mirth;

The time of year for trimmings and fuss;

All of these are feelings of Christmas




Don´t forget the Stairs!

I’m a fan of kitchens being comfortable rooms that you want to spend time in,” says designer Gwyn Duggan. This spacious 16-by-20 foot kitchen gave her the opportunity to create just that. Duggan introduced comfort through upholstered seating, including wing chairs cleverly covered in easy-to-clean outdoor fabric and a banquette built into one end of the island. Limestone counters, walnut floors, and aged-wood beams lend character to the new construction. Below the vent hood hangs the crowning touch, a medallion found in Savannah. “I’m always looking for that one element that catches your eye and makes the space a little different,” says Duggan. Says judge Susan Smith: “The space has a lot of depth and detail.”

What time is it Sweetheart?

Necessary, absolutely necessary in any home, whether in the kitchen or living room. The human being is an absolute control freak weather, time and life. If we haven´t a clock we - generally-feel in the midst of a "nothing", all should be controlated. I like that type of clocks which numbers look good, but nevertheless, there are cutting-edge design watches that barely have a sticks. Here I leave some proposals. I´ve recopied a huge number of clocks that are sure you´ll like. Take a look:

{Necesario, absolutamente necesario en cualquier hogar, ya sea en la cocina o en el salón. El ser humano es un maniático del control absoluto del tiempo, del tiempo y de la vida. Si no contamos con reloj nos sentimos en medio de una "nada". A mí me gusta que se vea bien los números, pero sin embargo, existen relojes de diseño vanguardistas que apenas cuentan con unas manesillas. Aquí os dejo algunas propuestas. He recopiado una serie de relojes de pared que seguro os gustará. Aquí tenéis: }

El Sillón Perfecto

Si no sabes de que color comprar tu sillón o que estampado elegir, te aconsejo que optes por algo que - a parte de combinar con todos los colores de cortinas, muebles y objetos - es siempre elegante y fresco.

Éste es especialmente uno de mis clásicos favoritos, abullonado o no, un sofá en tono marfil o beige representa un toque elegante en el sofá, y un mueble que te durará toda la vida.

Éste en particular se llama "Michelle" y puedes comprarlo en High Fashion Home:

Un Huerto en Casa

No hay nada más entretenido que cultivar nuestro propio huerto de hortalizas y verduras. Simplemente hace falta algo de tiempo, las semillas adecuadas, información acerca de su compatibilidad con el clima de nuestra localidad y mucho amor. Además, es una forma práctica de tener a mano todos los ingredientes necesarios para una dieta sana y equilibrada.

Martha Stewart - la famosa decoradora - nos muestra su encantador jardín vegetal.Mide 150x90, y alberga alrededor de treinta especies diferentes de verduras, hortalizas y frutas.
