This week's phrase isn't going to help you identify a piece of furniture, but it may help you spot Père Noël! We had a surprise visit from him during Christmas dinner with family and friends. For some reason, nobody could get a clear picture. This IS the most wonderful time of the year!

| Père Noël (Santa Claus) |
"He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot,
And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot.
A bundle of Toys he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a peddler, just opening his pack.
His eyes-how they twinkled! his dimples how merry!
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!
His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow,
And the beard of his chin was as white as the snow."
Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good night!
À Bientôt!
&
Joyeux Noël!
Lolo & Mimi
