We have a new contributor this year: Patti says she’s always loved reading the stories from past holiday exchanges, and has finally gotten up the courage to submit something herself. So make sure to check out her story on the Holiday Exchange page, or click here to be taken to her blog: My Christmas time Brat.
Be sure to let her know how much you like her gift….hopefully this won’t be the last year she participates! 🙂

I really enjoyed the story! Cute and likable characters. Patti’s writing is very “folksy.” I meant it as a compliment! 🙂 BTW, going to a Xmas market right now would be wonderful. Nostalgic about those in Europe. I went to several in France and Luxembourg three years ago. Anyway, there’s no comment option on her blog. Thank you for this enjoyable Xmas present, Patti.
Thank you, Peachie,
I appreciate your commenting and the compliment. I am also kind of jealous; I have wanted to go to the Christmas markets in Europe for the past few years. Things, you know, life kept getting in the way. I guess I should have gone when I had the chance. I went to Luxembourg last Summer, but just for the day, I’ll have to YouTube their Christmas markets. Hopefully, 2021 will be an exceptional year.

Oh, and thanks for the heads up about the comment section on my blog.
I couldn’t find a comment section under that story so I’m leaving one here too, Patti. Thank you for sharing that story with us. I could really appreciate the Christmas feeling in it (e.g., I love Xmas carols and Michael Buble!) as well as the genuine love shared between the two women. I also know how well a brat sleeps after a good spanking! *LOL* Glad you participated this year, and I hope you’ll be back. 🙂
Thanks, Alyx; I loved being part of this tradition. I hope to participate again. I have also fixed my comment section. I guess I’m not familiar enough with WordPress yet to know when something is missing. I’m always learning.
