Hello everyone ! How is your Advent going on ? Today, I wanted to share with you something slightly different, no DIYs, no recipes. Only what I would call my Christmas essentials. My favourite music, activities, food and so on. Those things that make me feel Christmas mood all day around.
- Christmas Playlist
#The complete “The Nutcracker” Soundtrack ( amost-have for Christmas)
#Let it snow, by Bing Crosby

- Favourite Advent Activities
#Go shopping(or not) in decor shops and charge into the Christmas decorations section
#Decorate the whole house(not kidding, if I could decorate 200% of the rooms, I would)
#Make Christmas DIYs( wait for the dedicated post, it’s coming, I’m working on it)
#Bake Christmas Cakes, if you want to check out my Christmas cake recipe, here is the link: Christmas Cake
#Prepare Christmas Cards; Advent is not only a period when you wait for your presents under the tree, it is also a period when you should take care of the others( more than the rest of the year)
#Go to the Church on Christmas Evening and sing with happiness in my heart(and trying to share this happiness with other people)
- My Christmas Movies Selection (when I was a kid, my brother and I weren’t allowed to watch movies on morning except for Christmas, and I think it added something special to this day for us, but curiously we wouldn’t run to the TV set and watch a movie, we would rather eat chocolate and play with our new toys)
