Recently hosted a yuletide party and other than accidentally inviting too many people, it was a hit. The cherry on top? An insane amount of popcorn, dried oranges and ribbons strung up all around the apartment. People notice stuff that clearly required extra thought and attention. Plus it's kinda fun making a massive pot of popcorn, putting on a movie and stringing it all up.

1. Everyone picking one present to open the night of Christmas Eve.
2. Making my grandmaās kringla recipe!
3. Reading my cousinās illustrated book from the 70s, The Tiniest Candle, about a candle that nobody in Bethlehem wanted because it was so little and pathetic and it gets really sad and discouraged but then the night baby Jesus is born they use it for light and warmth in the manger. Lol picturedā¦
4. Watching shitty low budget cartoons like Annabelleās Wish (ummm I canāt turn the words into a link sorry it keeps glitchingā¦ full movie here https://youtu.be/GbHkww5Zf7g?si=bYIDMqqZDr2hJh_n) and Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer (trailer https://youtu.be/D4mIpgWrRXE?si=7lDrpQ8RzzI6muaH )ā¦ and also real Christmas movies
5. My freshman year of high school, the semester final project for my pre-AP biology class was to make a double helix model and I decided to be quirky and use colorful fluffy pompoms for the base pairs and put zebra print felt on the base of the model. After it was graded I took it home; my dad was decorating for Christmas and he saw the model and decided to be quirky too. He put it in the center of the dining room table and put Christmas lights and ornaments on it and tenderly clasped his hands together and said in a Martha Stewart voice, āItās a Christmas miracle.ā So every year we would do it again and call it the Christmas miracle. I wish I had pictures in my possession but I donāt!!
6. Oh and for a Christmas tree topper every year my parents used a star I made out of popsicle sticks and glitter in kindergarten š

This album got me through undergrad. Not only is it great when I have a bunch of writing to do, it's also perfect for a chore day around the house or to just listen to as you stroll around your neighbourhood. I've probably clocked in like 300 hours at this point and it never gets old.
