Advent calendars have long helped build excitement and anticipation on the countdown to Christmas, typically revealing a pretty picture or piece of chocolate behind the cardboard [...]

It’s Not Just About The Candy

There’s a lot of things I like about Halloween-

Christmas
Anita Marie?”
I said:
“I’d like to go to Roswell for
The 2008 UFO Festival.”
” That would involve you leaving the state for a few week, wouldn’t it?” Santa says too me.
” Indeed” I say to Santa.
” Talk about killing two birds with [...]
