Re: Celebrating holidays - Christmas
I know I might irritate some people by saying this but I adore Christmas holidays in the US!!! Its such a fun time and the sales are spectacular! Its coming up and you can already see the lights all over the city and I believe Chicago will be putting up our city Christmas tree sometime soon too. Marshall Field's which is now Macy's has a yearly storybook display which is absolutely beautiful! Every town has their own HUGE tree which is decorated and put up in their own respective downtowns. There is red, white and green everywhere you look and presents! I always give presents to my coworkers that I like and of course my boss (when I had a boss) gets a tin of cookies. Its also a great time to stock up on anything you might need for the rest of the year because stores put up everything for sale like they're going out of business. I have a lot of fun with it.
