Sure enough, Meryl!  Thanks.

Christmas is only a little more than two weeks away. Time to resurrect this thread.  ;D

I was thinking about it over dinner this evening. I'm sure I must have written about this somewhere on a preceding page, but I'm not going to search for it. I'm just going to say, probably repeating myself, that if I never heard "White Christmas" and "Silent Night" again, I wouldn't mind.

Aside from the fact that the song gets done to death every holiday season, I suspect I dislike "White Christmas" because it's not true to my life. "I'm dreaming of a white Christmas, just like the ones I used to know"? Hello. I grew up and live in southeastern Pennsylvania. I could probably count on the fingers of one hand the number of "white Christmases" that I've experienced in my 59 years. And every year the TV weather talkers prattle about "our chances for a white Christmas."  :P

"Silent Night" just raises my blood sugar level.

I dream of a brownish-greenish Christmas. That is, a Christmas without snow, which I am pretty sure I have never seen. I remember at least a couple of years where it came close, but there was always at least an inch or two on the ground by Dec. 25. And sometimes much more than that. I'm not a big fan of winter or snow, so I would be happy with a Christmas of color.

Of course, I've lived in other places over the Christmas season that were slightly less white than Minneapolis. In New Orleans, I loved doing my shopping in a T-shirt, walking around the French Quarter, sipping a Hurricane from Pat O'Briens' takeout window.

But since my then-husband and I both have/had family in Minneapolis, we always came back here for the actual holiday.
