Scallop potatoes on Christmas dinner

Posted by christmas - October 20th, 2008

One of my favorite dishes to have at Christmas dinner is scallop potatoes. I got the recipe of scallop potatoes from my Mom who got it from her mother and I think that’s one of the reasons it’s my favorite.

When I make this dish I think about my grandmother and it’s almost like she’s still with me. Whenever I make this dish from scratch, it gives me a warm sentimental feeling. This is a dish that I really enjoy making for others; it makes me feel like I am sharing a little bit of my family with them. Read More »

Lyrics Christmas song Carol of the Bells

Posted by christmas - October 6th, 2008

“Carol of the Bells. I love this song because it is not too cheesy cheery like other Christmas songs, but it still really captures the spirit of Christmas in both its music and lyrics. I sang this song for my high schools choir for their Christmas concert.

It is a very lovely song and for the last three years I’ve put multiple versions of the song on my annual Christmas CD I made for my friends.”

“My favorite Christmas song is the Carol of the Bells. I love all Christmas songs, but this one has stood out my whole life. It is in movies that celebrate the season and is a tradition of my high school.

When I was a senior I was in an advanced choir. I actually got to start the carol. As it is a round I also got to finish the song. It continues to be my most favorite song of the season.”

Lyrics Alvin and the Chipmunk Christmas song

Posted by christmas - October 5th, 2008

Alvin and the Chipmunk Christmas song has to be my all time favorite song. I remember the song from when I was a child. Every Christmas my mom would put in the CD and we would listen to it while decorating the house and the tree.

When this song comes on we would all sing it together. The CD would be played all throughout the Christmas season.

Lyrics Christmas song Baby its Cold Outside

Posted by christmas - October 4th, 2008

My favorite Christmas song is “Baby its Cold Outside”. I love it because its always cold at Christmas time and it just makes you want to go inside next to the fire or sip hot chocolate.

This song has a special memory to me of the night my girlfriends and I jogged 3 miles and then stopped in at our favorite Cafe. We sat outside and had our scarves around our faces and snapped a picture of us three. That picture is in my Christmas frame titled “Baby its Cold Outside”.

Here are the lyrics to the song: Read More »
