I must admit that I do love me some Christmas movies, which I'm assuming today's topic, Holiday Flicks, is inferring to. After some careful contemplation, I've whittled down my favorites list to two. Basically, I asked myself, "If I were stranded on a deserted island but had access to a device that would allow me to watch movies, which two Christmas movies would I want on the island. I chose:
I know most people find A Christmas Story annoying, but I absolutely love it. I love the simplicity of it, the nostalgia, and it reminds me of when I first saw it when I was a kid. As for Home Alone 2, I think NYC at Christmas is absolutely stunning with all the decorations and lights, so I thoroughly enjoy the New York scenes in the movie.
As for my favorite Thanksgiving dish, it is hands down, no contest, my grandmother's turkey and dumplings, which I don't have a picture of so I'm improvising with these:

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

I tend to spend the holiday alone, so there's no special meal. But I usually get a bottle of Kahlua.
why do you tend to spend the holiday alone, e-man? this makes me sad.
Deletebut since you're getting the kahlua, grab a bottle of baileys and tito's vodka, too. an ounce of each of those with an ounce of kahlua, too, on rocks is a wonderful thing.
i have yet to see a christmas story in its entirety and have never seen home alone two.
ReplyDeletemy favorite holiday flicks are the family stone and hallmark's the christmas ornament (it's cheesy as shit, but i love the story).
and my favorite thanksgiving dish is blueberry banana cream pie (but we're not having it this year.)
