Entry bubble Holiday Greetings from GovGab

By: Ginger | December 25, 2009 | Category: General


Around this time every year, synapses begin firing in brains telling people to send out holiday greeting cards. The synapse in my brain that controls card sending behavior doesn't work properly. It rarely fires at all, but when it does, it doesn't tell me to send holiday greeting cards. My synapse fires and tells me to send... shoelaces. If you ever get a pair of shoelaces in the mail from me, that is my way of saying “Happy Holidays.”

A bowl of brussel sprouts with a red holiday bowI spent a lot of time searching for the perfect photo for my blog to wish everyone a beautiful, joyous, holiday season. I kept finding gorgeous photos of Christmas trees. There were lots of photos with Santa, ornaments, candles, and poinsettias. I wanted my photo to be perfect for everyone, no matter what holiday traditions they celebrated.

I found so many photos, but not the perfect one. The more I looked for the perfect photo, the more confused I became. Finally, the “perfect blog photo” synapse fired in my brain and selected a photo. As usual, my synapses fired in a faulty manner. My brain selected this photo of brussel sprouts as the perfect blog photo to wish everyone “Happy Holidays.”

Forgive me. Most of you probably don't even like brussel sprouts. Actually, I am not that fond of them myself, but for whatever reason my brain decided the lowly, and mostly disliked, brussel sprout is my symbol of holiday joy this season!

The GovGab bloggers and the Federal Citizen Information Center staff wish all of you the best this holiday season. May the joy of the season fill your heart... and may my blog photo inspire you to try brussel sprouts at your holiday dinner!

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!
I would like to take the time to wish you a happy holiday and a successful 2010. May all your dreams come true. May you find happiness and contentment. May the sun shine upon you.
We have all had friends in life, friendships, relationship that take a wrong turn and sometimes end over the silliest of reasons. If you have a friend that you miss, reach out to him or her. If you did your friend wrong, apologize. If a friend hurt you - forgive. Life is too short. What we depend on in life is each other. Learn from your experiences and grow. I am asking everyone to step it up a notch in 2010.
Cheers

We adore brussel sprouts, and that is a beautiful photo! I must try them with bacon (?) and almonds (?). Well, anyway, Happy New Year to you.

Thank you for your blog on the Holidays and brussels sprouts. I wish you and the staff of govgab Happy Holidays and many happy returns of it.

By the way, instead of traditional turkey, or brussel sprouts dinner, we had fondue and wine for the first time at our Thankgiving and Christmas dinner.

Have a great Holidays.
Ismail

My family likes brussel sprouts. Had them for dinner last night and packed some leftovers for lunch today.

Keep up the great work you've been doing and best wishes for 2010.
