For Christmas, my brother-in-law brought over a bottle of Cragganmore to share, and gave me a gift card to my favorite package store (Specs). My mother-in-law gave me a 12 cigar sampler pack, and my own mother gave me a couple blocks of Beemster aged gouda!

The kids are asleep, the wife has gone to bed, and I am alone now (finally!) with my Christmas gifts!

I'm enjoying a tumbler full of whisky, smoking a Gurkha, and nibbling on some small bits of gouda! Oh, and surfing the web on my Macbook! The air outside is around 40* F, which is wonderful weather (bundled up a bit!) to enjoy a warm dram!

This is my own little piece of heaven. I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas, and are enjoying the season in your own way!
