12 Days of Christmas – Day 1

Would you rather give up Christmas trees or Christmas cookies?

I know this one might be hard for some but for me, this is an easy would you rather Christmas question. It is not Christmas without a wonderous beautifully lit Christmas tree. I would easily give up Christmas cookies if it meant keeping my Christmas tree.

There is something so magical about a Christmas tree! Between the the ornaments, lights, and (of course) presents, it means the holiday season is officially here. Unlike most people, the tree in my family goes up the day after Halloween. Always has and always will. It makes me so happy when November 1st finally rolls around knowing that at the end of the day, I’ll be able to sit back and enjoy the wonderful new view in my living room.

Don’t get me wrong, I do love a good Christmas cookie (and my grandma makes the best chocolate crinkle cookies that exist) BUT I’m not a big sweet person. I used to love every single cookie that was out there and lived for Christmas to come around just for the cookies. Over time though, my taste changed and I started to enjoy making the cookies more than eating them. (I know, I’m weird!)

So you tell me, would you rather give up Christmas trees or Christmas cookies??

Top 10 of 2020

One thing I enjoy the most about the end of the year is looking back and finding the best parts of the past 365 days. Obviously, we all know 2020 has been ROUGH. Like most people in the world, I lost a lot. I got dumped (twice), I lost my job, I wasn’t able to…
