Hello everyone! Nice to see you again before the holidays! Well, the shopping is all past and done with anyway, the gifts and presents are bought and properly wrapped. It is becoming increasingly hard to ignore smells and sounds from the kitchen. Christmas, the greatest of all the holidays, is just around the corner and you may feel like almost happy now. So, in preparation for this eternal holiday there are some things-to-do in order to celebrate this feast in an appropriate way. Would like to check?

Well, first of all, it’s Christmas mood! It’s impossible to mark the holiday without being happy, invigorating and encouraged. So be inspired! Write down your Christmas movies list and try to keep it. There are so many good-hearted Christmas movies to see – How the Grinch Stole Christmas, Miracle on 34th Street, Santa Claus Conquers the Martians (sci-fi Christmas? Well…why not?), Christmas in Wonderland, Bad Santa… oh, the list of Christmas movies is so huge, that you can find some movies to watch quite easily. Remember the Christmas music playlist! What it could be – relaxing jazz with Duke Ellington & His Orchestra, Western-styled Christmas country music like Johnny Cash or Faith Hill, or classical Christmas hits like Deck the Halls, Hark! The Herald Angels Sing and We Wish You a Merry Christmas. That’s for you to decide!

Hope you remember some sort of traditional Christmas meal or drink. If no, it’s the time now to think about it. There is no smell like eggnog, Christmas punch, mulled wine or hot mint Christmas chocolate, so you feel an immediate Christmas coming. Don’t forget Christmas citrus – oranges, tangerines and mandarins are perfectly associated with this glorious holiday.

And, of course, share the intervening holiday with your gorgeous Russian lady! Christmas and New Year are traditionally considered to be one of the greatest holidays in Ukraine and Russia. It’s a common practice to exchange gifts and Christmas cards, so your lady would be gladly surprised with your sign of attention. It’s the attention not the present that counts, they say, and it is true. So share the Christmas joy with your lady and who knows – you may start the family and spend the next Christmas together!
