Karen, here. I’m Chief Christmas Elf and Editor of this web site. I think we should all remember to take time to slow down, drink some hot cocoa or mulled wine, put our feet up, and find some peace and relaxation during the holiday season. Here, we offer suggestions for all kinds of enjoyable Christmas fare to keep you company as you cuddle up under your fleece throw. Read a good holiday book. Listen to some soft holiday music. Watch your favorite Christmas movie (or two, or three) and get yourself into the spirit of the season. But ultimately, take some time for yourself, to unwind, to catch your breath, and to find some of that Christmas peace that often seems evasive during this time of year. I know you can do it!
