Jingle Bell Time

You can’t tell from looking at our leftover Hanukah decorations, but I generally like Christmas.

This in spite of the “All Christmas! All the time!” music our Loud Neighbors have been playing (loudly) since the day before Thanksgiving…

And, okay, yeah, our house is the dark splotch on an ersatz Candy Cane Lane.

(Not to mention my Growing Grinchiness with the excessive capitalization the Holiday Season inspires.)

Still, for the most part, Auntie likes Christmas.

Let’s be honest here, what I really like is the excuse to make cookies for people and the justification for all the Santa Clauses I keep around all year long.

Don’t snark. The spirit of joy and generosity that is symbolized by a smiling fat guy who doesn’t happen to be Robert is a beautiful thing. Robert is also a beautiful thing, but that’s beside the point.

Giddy-up Jingle Bell Rock.
