1. Here's a great post at More Thyme Than Dough on How To Recapture Christmas Joy. Really good practical advice in a cute list format.
2. Christmas For Less is a goal at The Family Finances Blog. I guess we all have that goal, and I appreciate these great tips.
3. Holiday Weight Loss, Is It Possible? We'll See at Budgeting In the Fun Stuff speaks to all of us! My take is to indulge in small amounts and eat healthy stuff most of the time. January is good for dieting, after all!
4. My Alternate Life posts Reconciling Consumerism with Minimalism and gives some good food for thought during the holiday season.
5. Nurse Frugal wonders: Proper Gift Etiquette--Is there Such a Thing?
6. Plunged In Debt tells how to Fake a More Expensive Christmas Gift. (Attractive ways to wrap gifts.)
Still feeling Grinchy? How about popping some popcorn, sipping a little Grinch Punch and settling in with one of my favorite Christmas movies? Ah, that's better!

DeleteI mostly listen to talk radio, so I haven't heard many Christmas carols yet. When it gets closer, we'll play some on Pandora. Thanks for the link; I appreciate it!
ReplyDeleteI like your suggestion to make popcorn, drink punch and watch a favorite holiday movie.
ReplyDeleteMy wife and I really like "The Family Man."
My pleasure, Justin. I got tired of talk radio and now prefer music. Enjoy your holidays!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Terry, for the movie suggestion. I'll check it out! Happy holidays!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much, Maggie for including More Thyme Than Dough's post on recapturing Christmas joy. You honor me. And I am very grateful. This is especially special since I admire you and your blog so much.
ReplyDeleteRoberta, I'm so glad we "met" on Twitter. Your post is just wonderful and sums up so much of my attitude toward Christmas. Thanks and keep up the good work at More Thyme Than Dough!
DeleteMy daughter and I just watched the Grinch movie on television last night. I am shopping less and taking advantage of online deals to take some of the financial and emotional stress out of the holiday season.
ReplyDeleteSandy, I think that really helps. I buy mostly online and it does keep things more manageable. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas!
Deleteok so am i missing something - where is the recipe for the grinch punch??
ReplyDeleteHi, Aldina! Sorry I didn't make it very clear. Look at the second to last paragraph that starts "Still feeling a little Grinchy? How about popping some popcorn and sipping a little Grinch Punch." Click on the blue words that say "Grinch Punch" in that sentence to get to the recipe. Hope that makes sense.
