SENDING YOU our VERY BEST WISHES and Kisses under the MISTLETOE
According to Christmas Pagan custom, any two people who meet under a hanging of mistletoe are obliged to kiss. The custom may be of Scandinavian origin. It was described as early as 1820 by Washington Irving in his "The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon":
"The mistletoe is still hung up in farm-houses and kitchens at Christmas, and the young men have the privilege of kissing the girls under it, plucking each time a berry from the bush. When the berries are all plucked the privilege ceases."
I wish you all the very best, may your wishes come true, and thank you for all your kind words, time, comments, invites, faves and Awards. Very much appreciated.

Why not view the set as a slide-show?
Also I often upload more than one image at the same time, I see a tendency to only view the last uploaded...
