I will be taking a brief hiatus from the blog during the holidays, but will be back soon!
I historically have adored the holiday season and was that person who could barely get through Thanksgiving in order to start decorating for Christmas! Things have sadly changed over the past few years and I have found myself turning into a bit of a Scrooge. I was extremely aware of these changes this year, and have therefore done everything possible to regain my spirit . We have an adorable Christmas tree this year and under it are sparkling and shiny gifts for our loved ones (yes, folks, I like to go Christmas shopping and didn’t do it last year). I’ve been listening to holiday tunes non-stop on the radio (where would we be without Paul McCartney’s “Wonderful Christmastime?”) and I hosted my annual Carol Fest, which reminded me that friends are family. We will host Christmas Day with stuffed stockings and homemade gnocchi at our new home… but I’m still not where I used to be in terms of holiday-related excitement.
So I thought “What will help attain my normal level of excitement about Christmas?”
The answer seemed obvious once it came to me: A Return of the Jedi/Broadway-hybrid holiday card!
What says Holiday Spirit more than an action figure wearing a Santa Hat at a composite Radio City Music Hall? Nothing, folks, nothing.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS and see you next year!
