Welcome to a Wintry Iowa!
Snow has placed a blanket over the grounds here at Miss Spenser's...

However, despite the coldness...inside it is warm and cozy with smells of cinnamon, spices, balsam and delicious foods baking.




















As you enter our home, you are greeted by Victorian Christmas Music played by Masters Chase (15) on the Guitar and Zachary (13) on the Violin...selections are: Ding Dong Merrily on High; Gloucestershire Wassail, The Coventry Carol,
and the Holly & the Ivy...enjoy!


All around the home are signs of Christmas....prepare yourself for a Merry Ole' English Tea with Mrs. Cratchit and family.
