Being Festive, Vol. 1 of ?

Today just a few things to help you get in the mood... for the holidays! Woo! Before you even ask, I'm well aware that it is November 26th. But if New York is doing Christmas now, I'm doing Christmas now.

Below, a few pictures from my obligatory tree lighting trek - Lincoln Square is a lot more approachable than Rockefeller Center, and the music is better (although... Suzanne Vega, interesting choice for a giant Christmas festival?). I got to see everything from an all-woman Afro-Brazilian drum corps to up-and-coming jazz artist Marcus Strickland (in a museum gallery no less!).



And to make you even more excited for the holiday season, I've made a playlist with all my favorite enthusiastic (occasionally terrifyingly so!) Christmas songs. I saved the best for last - if Mariah doesn't get you in the spirit, you need to check yourself and then immediately watch Love Actually. It's a cliche because it's great!
