TINSEL + LIGHTS

This is just divine, and reminds me of another childrens' Christmas special that turned us all into socialists.

Acceptable substitute, imo.  Look, it's got a star and everything!

Where the gingerbread 1% live.

You know you're a yuletide wino when very few things get you as excited as the beers in this photo. My favourite Christmas brew of all time is the Whistler Winter Dunkel.  Unlike the pineapple one they have in the summer (kind of ew) they show some restraint with the chocolate, orange, and spices.  It's truly a deliciously festive beer... that may not be available outside BC.  Delirium Tremens and Delirium Noel are rad too, though. 

As much as I want to file this under AIN'T NOBODY GOT TIME FOR THAT, the coconut snow, the perfectly-piped trees, the candy earmuffs, and the oreo hat are PRECIOUS PRECIOUS PRECIOUS.

I would die of happiness if I owned a chandelier like that, and this is an absolutely beautiful way to make it festive.

This ring is fabulous and also reminds me that I need to do a text post/review of the best Christmas horror movie of all time, Snowglobe Christmas.  And by the best, naturally, I mean it's an absolute riot of a total stinker.

This is the cutest use of a candy cane and cupcake I ever did see.

Starbursts... in multicoloured tinsel... lit up by old school Christmas lights... I NEED THIS IN MY LIFE.

MERRY CIGMAS TO ALL!
