christmas classics
today is possibly the dreariest day so far this year. pouring rain, whipping winds, cold and nasty. in spite of this, my christmas cactus has burst into shockingly vibrant blooms, an assault of determined festivity.
more than ever, i need something cheery today. the house is full of the spicy smell of freshly baked pumpkin bread. the cat has become uncharacteristically cuddly and is curled up on my lap. i’m about to light a few candles for glowy effect, and play some christmas classics.
Bing Crosby – White Christmas
Ella Fitzgerald – Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas
The Ronettes – Sleigh Ride
Nat King Cole – The Christmas Song
Louis Armstrong – Winter Wonderland
Brenda Lee – Rocking Around the Christmas Tree
Vince Guaraldi – Christmas Time is Here

Oh that sounded like a lovely, cozy evening in – - sometimes he weather calls for it. It’s been grey and dreary here in the States too, and I find myself lighting more candles than usual…drinking more coffee and tea…enjoying my fuzzy footie slippers….ahhhh. Sometimes hibernation is good! :happy:
