Every Christmas Eve, the elves will come and give us a new pair of pajamas.
Let the children have their night of fun and laughter. Let the gifts of Father Christmas delight their play. Let the grownups share in full their unstinted pleasure before we turn again to the stern task and formidable years that lie before us.
It always depresses me when people moan about how commercial Christmas is. I love everything about it. The tradition of having this great big feast, slap bang in the middle of winter, is an essential thing to look forward to at the end of the year.
Every year since culinary school I have made a Buche de Noel, or Yule Log.
I throw a Christmas party at my house. It's not really a Christmas party, because I don't want to call it a Christmas party. But let's just say I put a lot of Christmas trees around the house, so it smells good.
I love Christmas. I love the music... I love everything about Christmas. I'm a big fan.
One way of celebrating the Solstice is to consider it a sacred time of reflection, release, restoration, and renewal.
In December ring Every day the chimes; Loud the gleemen sing In the streets their merry rhymes. Let us by the fire Ever higher Sing them till the night expire!
