'Maybe Christmas,' he thought, 'doesn’t come from a store. Maybe Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more!'

I'm a boy from a town near to the core of the Andalusian Christmas, Sherry(Jerez), land of the zambombás, the traditional carols groups.
In the zambombás, which are public and free to be in, traditional flamenco carols are played since mid-late November into the 28th of December.
The way that this carols are sang and danced is pretty much a very typical flamenco thing, but, sometimes, with more Christmas-y instruments added like tambourines, bells, and zambombas(that's why they're named like that)
The zambombás are composed by a circle of people that sing and play the instruments and inside that circle the people who dance(in jerez danceable carols are a thing) , and in the center, If the group is big enoughthere is a candelá (fireplace).
I think zambombás is one of my favourite Christmas traditions and even more knowing they're from my land.
It’s never too early!
Now we gotta load it up with presents. 🎁
The Christmas carol's name is traditionally spelt "The First Nowell". However, more recently it has been commonly spelt "The First Noel", mirroring the spelling of the French word Noël, meaning Christmas. Personally, I'm a fan of the traditional spelling, The First Nowell, but I'd like to hear other people's opinions on the matter.
I love decorating for Christmas!!! My mom passed December 27th, 2020 so this is my way of coping around the holiday season if that makes sense
Christmas baking about to go to new heights this season!
We're looking at getting a BH tree this year. The flip trees seem faster to set up, but it looks like maybe they collapse down less than the non-flip ones. I'd love to hear from those with flip trees where you store them the rest of the year? Thank you!
She’s wondering what’s supposed to be wrong with this doll. Can anyone explain?
Any recommendation?
I’ve always hated glitter as a kid and can’t find any cute ornaments that come in a set that don’t have glitter.
Also what brand of Christmas ornaments do you tend to buy ?
Where do you like to get your Christmas jumpers/sweaters from?
I’m looking for some good quality jumpers/sweaters/cardigans that will last many years!
Thank you 🎅🏻⭐️
Can’t wait to see everyone’s decorations!!!
