How to celebrate Dec 24th

So, you’ve found yourself in the perfect storm of last-minute celebration ideas with a twist. Let’s dive in! Start the day by mixing up a batch of creamy eggnog. Simmer some milk, cream, and nutmeg on the stove. Whisk in sugar and egg yolks for that velvety texture. Feeling adventurous? Add a splash of whiskey or rum. Sip on this festive concoction as you curl up with a good book. The Christmas Book Flood tradition encourages reading and relaxation. Explore tales of holiday cheer or mystery while enjoying your eggnog.

When the afternoon rolls around, embrace the spirit of Carols by Candlelight. Dim the lights, light some candles, and create a cozy atmosphere. Stream a virtual concert or sing your heart out to your favorite holiday tunes. Let the music fill your home with warmth and joy.

As the evening approaches, it’s time to tackle Last-Minute Shopper’s Day. Don’t stress about elaborate gifts; focus on thoughtful tokens. Craft handmade ornaments, bake cookies, or write heartfelt letters. Personal touches go a long way in spreading cheer.

Wrap up your day by sharing your creations with loved ones. Host a virtual gathering to enjoy eggnog, share stories from your books, and sing carols together. Remember, the holidays are about moments shared, not perfection. Embrace the spontaneity and creativity of these weird national holidays. Cheers to a day filled with eggnog, books, songs, and heartfelt gestures.
