So, you can't lose.

First to the MABLS. Believe it or not, most male attraction body language signals are unconscious. Men are not very perceptive in reading female attraction signals. Women initiate most encounters so subtly that most men think they decided to approach a woman. Smart female character send out those signals.

You’ll probably be disappointment with the male attraction signals. Men rev up their car engines, brag about how much they earn, and challenge other men. Phew, quite a list, huh? Kidding aside, it's amazing men and women ever get together. So show your masculine lead doing the obvious.

Women have lures and skills to land their man. Man don’t. 

Men are no good at sending out or receiving signals. Most of the time men simply react unconsciously to the signals from a woman.  

When a man sees a woman he’s attracted to he will straighten his tie, smooth his collar, brush imaginary dust from his shoulder, touch his watch, and rearrange his shirt, coat, and other clothing. 

A man understands a woman likes to talk, and he will talk to gain her interest. But that doesn’t last long.  

 

The most direct attraction signal he gives a woman is the thumbs-in-belt gesture. He may also turn his body toward her and point his foot at her, and hold her gaze for longer than usual.  

When a man is around a woman he’s attracted to, he will lower the timber of his voice to highlight his masculinity. He will stand taller, walk with a livelier gait, protrude his jaw, and expand his chest. 

So women characters have to look close and be alert to see a man who’s attracted to her.

THE CHRISTMAS PUTZ

Tamera’s novella, A Christmas Promise, tells about a Moravian family celebrating Christmas in Schoenbrunn Village in Ohio around 1773. The Moravian children had a custom of making a Christmas Putz. Sometimes it would be simple with the Nativity scene made with pinecones. Other times, it was quite elaborate with more pieces being added every year.

The Putz is different from a basic Nativity scene because it is used as a teaching tool. The Nativity with Mary, Joseph, and Baby Jesus forms the central part, including  animals and the wise men. Many Putz of that time also included Moses delivering the children of Israel to remind the children that Passover was a symbol of Jesus dying on the cross for our sins. They also included other Biblical scenes and sometimes would add Christmas villages.

Today, most Putz consist of elaborate Christmas villages. Whatever the Putz shows, it isn’t really a Putz unless the manger scene with Jesus is the central theme.
