Advent Calendar Day 17

Is it just me or do those elves look pretty worried about something?

Okay, today's musical offering is an actual YouTube channel's playlist titled A GOOD FOUR HOURS OF
THE BEST CHRISTMAS SONGS. 

Your mileage may vary. However, they do have some truly quirky oldies in there, and it's pretty festive vibe overall. Not a bad choice of background music while you do all your last minute wrapping/cleaning/cooking stuff.

Advent Calendar Day 15

 I just discovered Lindsey Stirling this year (like, three days ago) and I'm enchanted. 

When her version of "Deck the Halls" popped up on Pandora, I promptly bought her album Snow Waltz.

I went prowling on YouTube to see what I might find, and came across this lovely bit of animation.

Advent Calendar Day 13

 Continuing with yesterday's retro vibe, here's another not-exactly Christmas song. It's more of a winter holiday romance song, if you catch my drift (see what I did there?) ;-) It already popped up once on my playlist, but... It really is worth a listen. So pour yourself a cold martini and snuggle up in front of the fire with your fave companion.

This 1956 ditty is called "In the Gloaming" (By the Fireside) sung by Jo Stafford.

Advent Calendar Day 24

 I can't believe it's already Christmas Eve!

I'd hoped to finish another coda by now, but this last week just slipped through my fingers. Hopefully tomorrow? In the meantime, we have a song--Adrien English's favorite Christmas song, and a particularly apt one this year.




So have yourself a merry little Christmas Eve.

Advent Calendar - Day 13

Good morning! This morning's selection was suggested by reader-friend Antonella (you know her well if you're in my Goodreads group!)



Aretha Franklin performing "O Tannenbaum." Enjoy!
