The 10th Day of Christmas - Ten Lords A-Leaping

Exhausted upon my return from work so I built a fire.

A little Irish cream before I start my dry January tomorrow.

Christmastide 2020: The 5th Day of Christmas - The Cinnamon Bear

Tuesday, December 29, 2020

Listened to a few episodes of The Cinnamon Bear which was an old radio serial that was played in the days leading up to Christmas. I hear about this show a number of years ago and have been curious about it as I'm always looking for examples of retro Christmas fun. I found the recordings on Apple Music. 

Had some egg nog which is pictured above with my own version of the Cinnamon Bear. 

The series was designed to be listened to six days a week between Thanksgiving and Christmas. It was originally broadcast between Friday, November 26 and Saturday, December 25, 1937. 

Post Christmas Season 2017/2018 - More Decorating

Some of the following was set out on the 10th day of Christmas or after. Most of it has already been put away. I did a much better job of displaying my plates this year as I finally picked up some decent plate stands.  I could only find the smaller dala horses this year and not the two bigger ones. If it's getting to the point where I've got so much stuff that I can't find all of it then I think I may have a problem. Haha.
