Hey der Cheeseheads! Next for our alphabet soup series is the letter C, a very late episode about Christmas. But we talk about how Christmas is the best part of Winter so here's to hoping this cheers you up in negative temps with 2 months to go... Ya, we feel that too.
There's nothing more traditional than a Midwest Christmas with the family. Overall we chat about our favorite Christmas traditions growing up and which ones we'd love to get rid of as adults. Topics include:
- When is the RIGHT time to start Christmas, when is early - too early?
- What's a Cannibal Sandwich? Just Kate's mom's favorite holiday treat...
- EverGleam Aluminum Christmas Trees from Manitowoc, WI
- Real Trees vs Fake Trees
- If St. Nick comes to your house, you're lucky you get 2 Christmases & an orange that goes rotten in the bottom of your stocking
- The trauma that is finding out Santa isn't real (allegedly)
- Christmas as a Catholic: Jesus' Birthday, Midnight Mass, CCD, & Kate re-learns that Advent isn't during Easter
- Apparently "Baby it's Cold Outside" was a feminist movement song when it originated
- We both agree presents & full course plated meals are our LEAST FAVORITE parts of Christmas...
- Do you have to celebrate Christmas on December 25? Can we all agree any day around then is more than okay?
Lastly, shout out to our moms! Moms do a lot of work to make Christmas magical. See you next Christmas in 329 days, cheers!
