Aloha y'all, nya! Gosh it is hard to believe that it is December already, and at this rate the Mew Year might pounce upon us before we know it, nya! The tourism is purrone to increase during the Wintery months, as visitors from the nippier mainland purrtake of our perennial purretty bikini weather, the gardens & golf, boutiques & beaches and the stay at the hot spurrings for the soothing soak & tasty treats, nya! The bumpurr crop of the Bluefish, Groupurrs, Mullets, Snappurrs, Sea Bass, Stripurrs & Yellowfins would be purrfect to fill the nekomimi tummy, nya!
The tummy is nicely framed by the bikini, and the Winter appurral includes the cool hues of the shorts, halter tops, bikinis, maillots, purreos, sarongs, yukatas, kimonos, sarees & cheongsams, nya! The purrecious stones for December are the Turquois, Zircon, Tanzanite, which would be good in the jewelry to accessorize the garment, although, also to be considered this month are the stones for the astrological signs, nya! There is Topaz for the Sagittarius until December 21st, and then the Garnet for the Capricorn which begins on the 22nd, nya!
December's birth flowers are the Holly and the Narcissus, which would be good for the tail corsage or as the garnish of the suppur, nya!
