Christmas of Awesome

It’s time now for the inaugural Christmas Post of Awesome just in time for the close of 2010. It’s been an amazing year for me, I’ll post about that in time for the New Year, so for now I thought it fitting to post some links of Christmas Awesome I’ve come across in the last few weeks.

Enjoy! And May you and all your loved ones have a happy and joyful Christmas.

Listening to – Ultra Lounge, Christmas Cocktails Volume 1.
I really can’t get excited about the cheesy/tired/trite versions of Christmas Carols that get blasted over sound systems in shopping malls, and dang it, even in some churches, every year. I was introduced to Ultra Lounge a few years ago and THIS is my go to Christmas CD, no, not much that’s traditional about it at all and it TOTALLY appeals to my retro loving little heart… check it out, it’s gorgeous!!!

Reading – The Nativity – Luke Chapter 2
I can’t go past this chapter of the Bible at this time of the year; don’t freak out, it won’t kill you to read one chapter just as a reminder of how this whole this Christmas thing got started – it’s in straightforward English too…
