Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week, I’m talking about my favorite things about the holidays. This post isn’t bookish, but you can handle that, right? We’re all grown-ups here. I love the time between Halloween and New Year. There are so many celebrations and aesthetically pleasing things. Here are 10 reasons why the holidays are the best.

5. People Are (Somewhat) Nicer
6. Winter (An Excuse To Stay Inside And Read)
7. Excitement
8. Time Off School And Work
9. Christmas Music
10. Hilarious Holiday Memes
What do you love about the holidays?
Hahaha great list, and I agree with all of it! I love Christmas, it's my absolute favourite time of year (especially Christmas Eve!); I love the atmosphere and the music and the cooler weather and the FOOD.
ReplyDeleteGreat list! I also love the food, and the time off, and the retail meme above is true, because people are often ruder to retail workers this time of year it seems! Great post!
ReplyDeleteWe've been all about the holiday baking shows in my house. My daughter is obsessed with them right now and that's transferred to me! I'm actually listening to Christmas music right now, too. I found Evie's Come on Ring Those Bells and it's taking my back to my early childhood.
ReplyDeleteHere are some holiday reads I would like to read: My Top Ten Tuesday.
You even got my wife to crack a smile. Not easy when she's bugging me about being on the computer. https://pmprescottenterprises.wordpress.com/2019/12/03/top-ten-tuesday-winter-movies/
ReplyDeleteYeah, big holiday feasts are the best.
ReplyDeleteMy TTT.
Giving (and shopping, too :D) is one of the best things of this season. Of course, the decorations are also a highlight. :)
ReplyDeleteLove your list! I'm all for #1. Big, rich holiday meals? Bring 'em on! The graphic for #3 is priceless! :)
ReplyDeleteAs always, AJ, you made me laugh! Love your list and the memes that you picked to go with them, just so we don't have to worry you're getting sentimental on us.
ReplyDeleteYes to movies. There are sooooo many holiday Hallmark movies ( you know I love that). Yes to decorations. Some people are true artists, and I love the lights. So festive. I love the food too, though, I really shouldn't eat at all.
ReplyDeleteI love giving gifts, too! Even though it can be hard to pick stuff out, I love finding that perfect gift!
ReplyDeleteYes to the holiday feasts. I love all the feasting this time of year.
ReplyDelete"Your ornaments are history" lol. So true! Our cat last year batted a glass ornament down the stairs, and of course it shattered. Cats are evil.
Bwhahah I LOVE this list! You crack me up, and this is certainly no exception. I cackled at the throwing the empty box in the fireplace, it's so genius and delightfully evil 😂 I also feel #8 on a spiritual level. I need it to be December 23, basicallY!
ReplyDeleteI'm a bit more of a Bah Humbug person! I hate he crowds, the Christmas music, trying to find a parking space, black ice underfoot and the biting wind!
ReplyDeleteLol! This is the best. I love the one about Santa judging all year. I love the holidays too! The Christmas lights up everywhere, all the cookies, holiday movies. And now watching Wyatt get so excited over it all too, is so much fun!
ReplyDeleteThat giant inflatable Santa is just creepy - and I probably shouldn't have giggled at the strung up deer ;-)
ReplyDeleteFun list, love the graphics!
ReplyDeleteHa ha. These memes are great! I love the holiday decorations, the music, the fun movies, and the coziness of the season (even though it's usually still in the 60s - 70s here in the Phoenix area. And I do think people are nicer and more generous during the holidays (but I don't work retail).
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming by my TTT earlier!
Bwahahahahaha yes yes to all of them AJ!!!
ReplyDeleteYes Christmas music! I love this list but I would add Christmas movies to made it complete <3
ReplyDeleteI love the first one. I wish I had more than one day off for Christmas. I really do hate it when the holiday falls in the middle of week like it does this year. Thanks for the laughs!
ReplyDeleteI feel #5 very much...
ReplyDeleteI love this!! And oh my gosh, holiday memes are so good.
ReplyDeleteAh!!! Yes!!!! I am not going to lie, I nodded my head and cackled to quite a few of these things.
ReplyDeleteCookies, yes, I love Christmas cookies. 🎄
