A Christmas Carol

Hope you had a very good time with this Christmas, I spent all day Saturday waiting for Doctor Who Christmas Special to be aired. And then waiting all day Sunday because I promised my brother I would watch it with him. There is only one thing I can say for sure; Best.Christmas.Special.Ever! Guest stars actor Michael Gambon and Welsh singer Katherine Jenkins were quite great casting.

THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS

by Clement Clarke Moore
or Henry Livingston

'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house

Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;

Walking in a Winter Wonderland...

Hello people! Tomorrow is Christmas Eve! Most people like to eat a Christmas feast with their family on either Christmas Eve or the Christmas Day, whenever you'd like, here is some advice from the great English cook Gordon Ramsay. I'm posting this now because there are some recipes that needs to be prepared in a few days advance. I personally love the 'aubergine caviar'...

It's three parts and Mr.Ramsay himself shows you how to cook the entire feast from the appetizers to the desert..

The Big Bang Theory: s04e11 - The Justice League Recombination

All of you who love The Big Bang Theory must be really happy right now. I certainly am; not just because of all the Friday Specials Big Bang was the only one with a new episode this week but because it was probably the best episode in this season, even maybe the best episode so far (I my self am pretty fond of the s03e14 - The Einstein Approximation , so can't say it was the best so far).

Cupcakes and Christmas

Found that special someone to share Christmas time with, since yesterday? No? That's okay, that is why we have families, and of course; booze... *insert evil laugh*

Anyway here's some holiday food for you and your eyes...

It is always nice to share this time of year with someone, for those who do not have someone special, like me, what do you think New Year Resolutions are for?...*winks*

Starbucks and Christmas

To me, Christmas is more fun with Starbucks; their mugs, the snowflakes on their windows and their Toffee Nut Latte... Their spirit almost matches mine.... Almost...

14th of December:

Song: Bobby Helms - Jingle Bell Rock

December 13th

I LOVE CHRISTMAS! I love the decorations, I love the tree, I love presents, I love the movies... I love and am full of Christmas Spirit! I love it when malls are all alight with sparkling, snowflake shaped lights and the windows are full of Christmas item, present boxes, toys, decorations....

you could say I'm a total Christmas freak... Well some what. I don't religiously celebrate Christmas but I love it anyway. In Turkey well mostly in my family we do Christmas stuff on New Year's Eve; the big dinner, presents, decorating the house... But most people just party with friends rather than being with family. Being so full of Christmas spirit myself I wanted to do something special and post Christmas pictures for the last 12 days to Christmas and 7 days to the New Year.

Hope you enjoy the pictures and songs I find for you!

Happy Holidays everyone!

13th of December:

Song: I believe this song suits this day very well..

Bing Crosby - 12 Days of Christmas

Oh before I forget only 15 days left to Christmas and most importantly the Doctor Who 2010 Christmas Special, "A Christmas Carol". Here is a little sneak preview to get you by. *winks*

The Tales of Beedle the Bard

Hello all!

I know it's been quite a while since I last put an entry but here I am...

So since my last entry the most significant thing I can say

is definitely the latestHarry Potter movie 'Harry Potter and the The Deathly Hallows: Part 1'. Now for the movie all I can say is they started from good and getting better and better in every movie. As a big fan of the book series I can say that everything is just like I imagined and in some features even better. That is a big thing for those who are as hard to please as me in watching the movies of the books you love. So here is the trivia for the Part 1; The book that Dumbledore leaves Hermione in his will, 'The Tales of Beedle the Bard',is actually printed as a separate book by the author herself J.K.Rowling, and is quite well written as the other Harry Potter books.

You can find 'The Tale of the Three Brothers' that featured in the movie in a very well-made animation, which tells the legend of the three 'Deathly Hallows'. The exact book from the movie is this leather bound collector, which was a Christmas gift to me from my brother, is actually really fun to read too.
