Hello! In today's episode it's all about the Home Alone reading prompt, and I found the perfect story for it - in fact, I'm going to be able to read it to you over the next three episodes. It's called The Burglar and The Blizzard by Alice Duer Miller. It's a charming, funny story set at Christmas about a bachelor named Jeffry Holland who arrives home one Christmas Eve and finds his house being burgled. Find out what happens next in today's episode! Join me for a story that is as cozy as a Hallmark movie.
