Awaiting Summer

As winter nights stretch thin their parchment, slowly chilling my heart

Oh my sweet darling, hold me close within your burning hearth

As stars above, consumed by darkness, provide a strained shine

Allow me to shake off my starkness: let me be yours and you be mine

As it is cold and I am weary, stuck beneath the snow,

I wait for summer, and for love—your warm enchanting glow.

Virtual Gingerbread House Decorating: Send out gingerbread house kits in advance or provide a list of ingredients, and let the friendly competition for the best gingerbread house begin. Share laughs and showcase the finished masterpieces on camera!

Christmas Trivia Night: Prepare a set of questions and use online trivia platforms to keep score. Create a festive atmosphere by incorporating holiday-themed questions and rewarding the winners with virtual prizes.

Online Cookie Decorating Party: Send out batches of plain cookies or a variety of cookie decorating kits to participants in advance. Gather on a video call to decorate the cookies together, sharing tips and tricks for creating festive designs. This sweet and interactive activity is perfect for family and friends of all ages.

In five days I’ll be on winter break for 12 days (it’ll feel more like 18 because my first week back at work is all remote!!!!!!) - after a batshit end to fall semester, I am looking forward to catching up on reading, as well as having some dedicated writing time…

Anyways I know I have some A BUNCH of fics from @loki-cees-all to share (Olivette has been living rent free in my mind this whole time!!!) and a bunch of Thrown to react to, so Cee and @maple-seed I hope y’all are ready 😂😂

I’ve also got at least a few @sarahscribbles and at least a couple @infinitystoner and @tripleyeeet fics to read/share, and then @mischief2sarawr just posted their monthly round-up… not to mention I’ve been dying to dive into @the-lady-amphitrite’s long fic…

I am SO EXCITED for this break, y’all!

Christmas in July Event?

So I’ve been thinking about this recently because with April coming to an end and July coming up after May and June, it made me wonder about something. Does anyone want to do a Christmas in July Drawing Challenge? Anyone can participate (as long the content does not cross lines like breaking laws). Anyone who celebrates Christmas or any other Holiday taking place at that time (Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, etc.), loves Christmas Specials and Movies, and anything winter related. All this listed above, but we all draw them in a summer setting. What are the elves doing over the summer preparing before Christmas comes? Where is Santa's Summar Vacation at? Or maybe you just want to draw a snowman on the beach. It doesn't have to be a thirty-day challenge event. Just do what makes you comfortable kind of event. What does everyone think?
