We all have that one friend. That friend for who, as soon as it’s Thanksgiving (or maybe sooner), the Christmas lights are up and it’s declared the *hOlidAy sEAson!!!* For me, that’s my former college roommate and blog partner Amanda. (One of the friends in my annual college Secret Santa.) Luckily, her love of the holidays has always really been an added bonus to our friendship. Where else would I get a very tailored Holiday viewers’ guide for the next 20 days?
So, according to Amanda… It’s time to set your DVRs, make a Netflix movie game plan, and clear your schedule to do a marathon TV holiday episode streaming day (complete with a bottle of Bailey’s and Christmas pjs). The holiday viewers’ guide is all wrapped up in a neat little bow below. 🙂
