Well, it's the Sunday after Thanksgiving, which means it's officially permissible to start decorating for Christmas. Georg and I aren't spending it with either of our families this year, so I guess I feel like I have to create Christmas because it's not coming to me otherwise.
Saturday morning I got up bright and early and went shopping for some Christmas decorations. We'll get a real tree later, but for now I've gotten a silver-spraypainted plastic one, sitting in a flowerpot with fake moss. I adorned it with globe-shaped white lights and am quite pleased with it. In the future when I can find some, I will further decorate it with some red ribbon.
I also got some Christmas-scented, red, white, and silver painted pinecones, nuts, and twig-balls, which I put in one of my wooden salad bowls. I set a small feather-poof of a bird ornament on top, as if the bowl is its nest. It's really cute.
See how cute?! Finally, I got a 97 cent Advent calendar...they had a really nice one at Starbucks filled with truffles, but it was 24 dollars, and who in their right mind would spend 24 dollars on an Advent calendar? I'm excited, because tomorrow is December 1st and Georg and I can open the first chocolate-filled window in the calendar!
