Happy Hour

{Gold & copper wrapping paper}

Mr. RC and I have been little elves going to town decorating the Runway Chef headquarters (aka our home) yet I'm still struggling to fully get into the holiday spirit. No matter how many pine candles I light (and trust me, I light a lot {see below}) and how many Christmas songs I listen to, it hasn't hit me that Christmas is just 15 days away (yikes!). I'm totally blaming the weather for this one, though. I don't know about where you live, but here in NYC, it's literally rained buckets for what seems like an eternity and a day, yet not a flake of snow in sight. So I'm over here praying for a blizzard and a fireplace so that I can really get into the Christmas spirit. Despite how the weather has been acting, I'm going to go ahead and say that I'll probably get the snow before I ever get the fireplace (I suggested bringing our fire pit inside but the Mr. thought our landlord wouldn't be too happy with us, I can't imagine why....).

How are you getting into the holiday spirit?
