I love doing Ten on Tuesday’s. Sometimes its so much easier to write and think in bullet points 🙂 So here at the ten things I love about Xmas

1. The colors, oh the glorious colors. The reds, the whites and the greens … Its love all the way

2. Plum Cakes : If left to me this will be point 1 to 10… I simply love love love it and so does N

3. Gifts, Gifts YAY… yes yes I am greedy for gifts but don’t those add a punch to life.. This time I participated in three Secret Santa games with three groups, one of them being the ones doing this month long marathon with me… I have got the gift from only one group now and the second one a mail that its on the way but I can’t tell you how excited I am about all this LOL

4. Xmas trees : there is something about a well decorated Xmas tree, though mine never looks as great as it should but I still love having it in my hall every december till the new year breaks in

5. Mulled Wine : Every Xmas I start making mulled wine at home a week in advance and we sip it in the evening 🙂 The spices the sugar the warmth… yumm yumm yummm

Picture Credit Google – I strangely couldnt find mulled wine picture in my folders and this year I havent made any because of the hospital rounds 😦 but I think I will make some today

6. Xmas Carols, Xmas songs : Growing up the only carol I had heard was Jingle Jingle bells but then some years ago our next door neighbors were Christians and come December every evening they would play some lovely carols and Xmas songs. Listening to it every evening became so much a part of my life that if they went out someday I would play it on youtube myself. Luckily even after moving houses we can Christians neighbors who play guitar and sing carols every evening. Bliss

8. Holidays : yeah who can have enough of holidays? Growing up it was 10 days school vacations, later for a while paid year end holidays and then worked for a company which had xmas shutdown and now its ojas’s vacation 🙂

9. Xmas movies : I love love love the movies around Xmas, be it Polar Express, A Christmas Story, Miracle on 34th Street, The Santa Clause, Jack Frost and many more

10. Happiness, Joy, Giving, Love : Last but not the least, love the spirit of Xmas, the love, the happiness, the joy it brings along

So here’s wishing u all a merry Xmas folks… Hope you have been good this year and santa is getting you loads of gifts
