A Present for You!
The thing I like best about Christmas is the Christmas TV specials!
This blog lists Christmas (and perhaps other winter holiday) specials
that I've already seen and liked, or which seem to hold promise. Many of
these specials will be from the marvelous Rankin/Bass productions which
produced such favorites as Rudolph, the
Red-nosed Reindeer, and Frosty's Winter
Wonderland.
Who is Christmas Witch?
I really call myself WitchQueen. I really like Christmas, but I
live in a studio apartment alone, hate clutter, and will go to my
parents' highly decorated home for the holidays. So, I'm not decorating
my real-life space for the holidays, but I miss all of the tree-trimming
and light-hanging rituals. So, I'm decorating the web.
