Dear Daughter of Claus. I've tried to restrain myself from offering a link or twelve to my (very similar) take on Christmas, but the wish to share parallel thoughts with a fellow fan (though a different generation) won! You're welcome to ignore them! I have (nearly) always loved Christmas and it reached a kind of peak a few years ago when I wrote about what made my heart sing (but also sometimes sink) at this time of year through objects, memories, small rituals and cherished repetition. They made up a set of posts on my blog called Twelfth Night Tales and below is a link to the introduction. Should you wish to read more (!) the link to the next tale is at the bottom of each post. With or without reading them I send very good wishes for this Christmas/ midwinter season to you and all your family. https://lizmilner.blog/2017/12/24/twelfth-night-tales-a-preview/
Oh, this is fantastic - thank you! I love reading and hearing about other people's celebrations. I shall enjoy sitting down with a cup of tea and reading these!
Thank you, hope you enjoy them. They're all gathered under one category in case it's easier to find them like that, BUT, annoyingly you'll see them then in reverse order! https://lizmilner.blog/category/twelfth-night-tales/
