To those of my readers who don’t celebrate Christmas, I’d like to apologise in advance for December.
Scrooges, look away now.
I love Christmas.
You have been warned.
What to expect from The Laughing Housewife in December:
- A decorated blog
- Christmas jokes
- Christmas cartoons
- Christmas stories
- Christmas pictures
- Christmas anecdotes
- A lot of posts about Christmas
- A lot of re-posts about Christmas (including this one)
- A lot of giddiness on my part
- A lot of lists (some naughty, some nice)
- A list of lots of things to do, mostly involving wine and hysteria, though not necessarily in that order
- A lot of posts which include the word ‘panic’ – it’s one day to Christmas month and I still have to find 25 Christmas jokes, Christmas cartoons, Christmas stories, Christmas pictures and Christmas anecdotes
- Red and green fonts
If this has come as a surprise to you, then it’s clear you haven’t read my About page:
Christmas and Maltesers must be done to excess; everything else is showing off.
I’ve just made a connection! Christmas is red; Maltesers are red – I’m not a greedy pig when I eat seven boxes of Maltesers: I’m re-living Christmas.
Now pass me a bucket; I feel a bit green.

Yes, I like December for the decorations. I have my blog to decorate, which will be done soon, but then, I’ll have to redecorate it for my End of the World party ( 😉 ), and then I’ll have to redecorate it for Christmas again. And then, Tilly, it’s the new year. Where has this year gone?
