The fun and the fatty time of the year is sadly over.\u00a0Yes it was the season to be jolly, but not at the expense of one’s sanity. What I mean is that I was saying no to Christmas shopping, but I didn’t quite succeed – on 23.12. I found myself panic-stricken in a fully crowded shopping center wild-eyed with reckless anxiety.\u00a0 I said to myself that this is absurd, given my hard-won knowledge, through bitter experience of the ghosts of Christmas past, that I hate the crush of last-minute shopping, the wanton futility of it all. I decided to calm down and bought thoughtful presents that weren’t expensive at all, but very meaningful. Life’s little luxuries<\/strong> might seem like an inappropriate phrase to cite when so many of us are anxious about the state of our finances, but I tend to think that now is a good time to acknowledge the small yet precious things that make us feel happy. The craziness soon disappeared and the fun part began – the rustle of wrapping paper, the scent of pine needles, the flickering light of candles in the darkest nights of the year.<\/p>\n

Christmas was over; I was almost rolling down the stairs full of unnecessary sweets, and here comes New Years Eve<\/strong>. Me, my dear man and our friends gathered up for this special night in our freshly decorated apartment and toasted to a healthy, happy year. This night was very successful, why? My 100% woolen carpet was spilled five times (yes I counted), but luckily survived with no stains, the apartment seemed fairly livable in, since nobody was actually drunk – I had a full house of civilized people, all the food was eaten, I slept in my own bed (but woke up with a inflamed bladder which is caused by not drinking enough- I don’t know if they meant water or champagne?)<\/p>\n

All in all I realized that it’s best to appreciate “humble” nights like this. In sartorial terms, luxury and having a good, precious time doesn’t necessarily denote diamonds and fancy restaurants; instead it has more to do with what makes us comfortable. With this in mind, I hereby nominate a few luxuries: Dancing like crazy on your couch with your friends to weird music, having the deepest conversations in your kitchen, eating 10 different kinds of desserts, dancing with a toy snake<\/strong>, playing with little silver decoration reindeer’s,\u00a0 making a homemade pizza – forgetting about it in the oven and then serving it as “burnt crackers with tuna\u201d. Like I said – a very<\/span> successful night.<\/p>\n

On the photos below it looks like there has been a lot of drinking going on, which is absolutely not true, behind the scenes there was just a bunch of people drinking tea after midnight and playing Activity<\/strong> \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
