Christmas the past couple years, for me, has been totally about leaning into having calm, quiet moments with my family. Last year, it was especially cozy. Christmas Mass was recorded by my church and put on YouTube due to Covid. My parents and I ordered in from out favorite Indian restaurant, and my mom and I watched the service after dinner. The altar guild had dropped off communion wafers for those who wanted, and we took communion with chilled white wine we got from a neighbor. It was certainly different, but a sweet memory I’ll have forever.
This year, things seem pretty much back to normal, except for the fact that my mom and I have already decided that we have no interest in Black Friday. Instead, my mom, my Auntie Steph, and I will go to Chef Geoff’s and then I’ll finally get to show off my apartment to Steph. She actually gifted me my couch and my chair in my living room and I can’t believe that she hasn’t seen it yet!
Since we’re not doing the shoppin’ thang on Black Friday, my mom asked me what I want for Christmas. I honestly don’t want or need anything but she was like PLEASE give me a list. So I figured I’d share with all of you, too!

A note to my mom and anyone else reading this: I am by no means asking for everything on this list. These are just ideas and what I’m eyeing right now! I used to do monthly wish lists but seeing as how I’m not blogging as consistantly as I used to, you can always check out what I’m eyeing in my links under CURRENTLY CRAVING, AMAZON WISH LIST, and SEPHORA LOVES LIST.
