It’s that Time of Year! #Christmas #SantaClause #Macy’s #Joy

Posted on

It is that time of year, when we head to Macy’s Santa Land, in Herald Square.

Going to Macy’s, on 34th Street, in Herald Square, has been a family  tradition for Christmas, going back to the birth of my son-1977.   After a time they got to old to sit on Santa’s lap.  But as soon as my first grandchild was born I reignited the tradition.  Christmas time was Macy’s Santa Land time, again.  I was very happy.  Happy I had the opportunity to recreate an unforgettable experience with my two darling grandchildren.  Sophie, being the oldest, has been going now for 10 years, and Christian, the youngest, 7 years.  Oh, how they looked forward to taking the LIRR to Herald Square, to stand on a long line, so they can tell Santa what they want for Christmas.  They are so talkative but as soon as they enter Santa’s room they fall silent.  But Santa is able to gain their trust and get them to tell him their Christmas wishes. 

And once the gates are opened, they find it hard to stop talking. 

 

As Santa sits quietly he listens attentively, as they give him their Christmas requests.  It is wonderful to see how Santa manages to bring smiles of joy to the children’s faces, as he gives them hope of finding at least one item on their list under the Christmas tree, After all is said it’s then time to take the annual Christmas Santa photo.  Santa’s elf gets their undivided attention and snaps the shot.  

 

To my surprise, Santa got my two children to sit with him and take a picture.  WHAT a Surprise!!

Just like old times.  My daughter and my son.  Ho, Ho, Ho, Santa did it!  He gave me a Christmas present I never asked for.

 

 Christmas time is here!  Merry Christmas!

Christmas in Brooklyn #Dykerheights #Christmas #Shephards #Santa

Posted on

Dyker Heights is an Italian American section in Brooklyn where, for over 25 years, homes have been decorated with grandeur for the Christmas holiday.   An area that lights up with Christmas decorations.  Now, I have never gone to Dyker Heights to see these homes for holiday cheer, because, I had no idea that Dyker Heights was in Brooklyn, let alone light up the night sky with Christmas lights.  What hole have I been living in?  However, it was my darling daughter who had the pleasure of feasting on the Dyker Heights Christmas display. Here are some pictures of Dyker Heights and the Christmas in Brooklyn!

“We three Kings of orient are, bearing gifts we traverse afar…”  It’s what comes to my mind when I look at this picture.   So life like, so Christmas!

“Star of wonder, star of night…”  A Christmas Tree that glistens with stars that are  bursting bright.

Santa doesn’t ride a sleigh, but then Santa can  ride whatever he wants.  He is Santa!  Ho! Ho! Ho!

“Shepards pray at the sight…”  Not sure if Jesus received baskets of veggies, but no one said he didn’t.

My daughter may be  too big to sit on Santa’s lap, but giving him coffee!  I’m sure that’s  not the way to get more Christmas presents.

 

Dyker Heights is the place to get yourself into the Christmas spirit.  And I thought Macy’s was.  Boy, was I ever wrong.   Dyker Heights is a Christmas Wonderland!  Now, If the Christmas spirit hasn’t taken you over, get to Dyker heights, and see them Dyker Lights .

ZeroWater #WaterFilter

Posted on

Do you consider yourself a heathy person? Maybe you take vitamins daily, eat a balanced diet of whole foods, or even buy only organic. That’s great, but you might be overlooking the biggest factor to your health: the water you drink. It’s recommended that we drink 8 glasses a day and maybe you always hit that mark, but have you ever stopped to think about what’s in the water you’re guzzling down and giving to your family?

While you can’t control what’s in your tap water, you can take action to protect you and your family by buying a filter. However, it’s important to know that not all water filters are created equal. That’s why you need ZeroWater, the filter that gets more out of your water.

While other pour-over filters on the market use two-stage filters, ZeroWater utilizes a five-stage dual ion-exchange filter that removes 99.6% of total dissolved solids (non-organic impurities) from water. It’s also one of the only pour-over filters that is NSF certified to reduce lead.

ZeroWater’s 23-Cup Dispenser is the largest capacity dispenser on the market and features a convenient push-to-dispense spout. Plus, it fits perfectly on a refrigerator shelf giving you and your family easy-access to clean, pure water at all times.

  • BPA-free
  • One-handed push-to-dispense spout
  • Easy-access flip-top lid for refilling
  • Comes with a TDS meter to read water quality level
