I've never heard of it.
Here's something you've probably never heard of: an Autumn-themed Christmas tree. Well, friends, that's what I'm going to have next year. I've been buying up Christmas decorations (and cards and tags, etc.) that are on clearance. They're 50% off at Wal-Mart and 75% off at Target. I've gotten a ton of stuff for a relatively small amount of money. I've started a Christmas Box that shall eagerly anticipate next Christmas when, hopefully, its insides will adorn a lovely New Jersey Christmas tree. Included here, you can view a picture of some of said decorations.
Also, for Christmas, Grace gave me an Italian Phrase-A-Day calendar. Here on this blog, I will endeavor to share with you each day's new vocabulary. Today I will give you two, since I did not post yesterday's.
January 1
Buongiorno.
Good morning.
January 2
Ti amo!
I love you!
P.S. Brownie points to anyone (except Grace, of course) who can tell me why the title of this blog is hilarious.
