A Cosy Christmas Day

Boris Kustodiev, Christmas Tree Bargain, 1918. Wikiart.

“It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas” and that is exactly what we are going to discuss today! I’m so excited! Baking cookies, wearing Christmas pyjamas, listening to Christmas music, watching holiday movies. . . love, love, love! This article is going to be all about enjoying the simple joys of life and living it at your best! ( That is a lot of Exclamation Marks.) I will share with you my favourite Christmas music, movies and activities, so let’s dive in!

Christmas music is probably my favourite part of the holiday season (apart from the food). Here are some of my favourite songs. Most are classics sung by the legendary Frank Sinatra, just listen to all his Christmas songs.

Frank Sinatra: Let it Snow!

Frank Sinatra: Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

Frank Sinatra: Jingle Bells

Frank Sinatra: I’ll Be Home for Christmas

Frank Sinatra: Adeste Fideles

Bobby Helms: Jingle Bell Rock

Mariah Carey": All I Want for Christmas Is You

Wham! Last Christmas

Christmas Movies

The Claus Family

Holiday Rush

Home Alone 1

Home Alone 2

The Christmas Chronicles 2

The Grinch

(Most are available on Netflix.)

Christmas Holiday Cosy Night Routine

It’s a winter night, you are sitting at home, thinking what to do next. Here are some ideas:

Take a warm bath, with bath salts or a bath bomb, a candle and some of your favourite holiday music. Later, you can put on a fun face mask, and bake some holiday treats! Here is a link to my favourite Swedish Christmas bread, St. Lucia Saffron buns.

Once the buns are out of the oven, watch a Christmas movie and eat what you’ve baked. Enjoy!
