Christmas is in 70 days, yes that’s right only 10 weeks to the day! I love everything about this holiday but one of my best memories as a child is having chocolate first thing in the morning. For the month of December I was given an Advent Calendar which was used to count down the day until Christmas. Starting on December 1st as each day passed you would get to peek behind a cardboard window and find some yummy chocolate behind it. They would have different shapes like a teddy bear, a Christmas Tree, an ornament, etc and as time went on those were replaced with theme advent calendars like Disney (so much cooler than when I was a child). I’m not going to lie, but by the 10th day or so I would have eaten all the chocolates already! I didn’t want my parents to know so I would just re-fold the windows back down for each day to make it look like they hadn’t been open. Pretty smart kid, no?
My husband bought me an advent calendar a few years ago and looks like nothings changed since I was little; I think all the chocolates were gone by the 5th this time?
