Well, this is embarrassing. It's the TENTH anniversary of the Christmas Countdown here at Merwin and Merwin. Who knew, all those years ago, that I'd still be doing this a decade later. I guess I probably knew, though I certainly didn't imagine the countdown would feature the charming face of a different pup. But this little crazy, quirky, nutty guy has wormed his way into our hearts (sort of just like Merwin...) and here we are with 24 delightful days of Jolly Ollies awaiting us. In a year marred by downright horribleness, I'm going to savor it. Merry December.
