…is equal to the love you take

First, though I think it may be temporary, Frank at Post Secret has left up last week’s secrets in addition to adding new ones for this week.

I believe he’s done so because most of the secrets from last and this week have a reference of some kind to the holidays–or perhaps he just forgot to take them down. In case you haven’t seen last week’s make sure to hustle over there because as a rule, when the new ones go up, the old ones come down.

The one above is my favourite this week because I love mistletoe. My mom use to have my dad seek it out and we’d hang it in the kitchen entry area–so to get in the kitchen you had to walk under it (unless you wanted to walk around, through the living room and come in the other way to avoid it.

I just always thought it was a whimsical addition to all the tinsel and such as despite almost everything else “Christmas” in the house being fake, the mistletoe was real.

Sadly, I’ve been unable to continue the tradition of late because neither spouse nor I can find mistletoe anywhere!
