these are a few of my favorite things {1}

two weeks from today... "twas the night before christmas..." let the countdown begin! from now on through christmas eve i'll be posting some holiday favorites of mine.

today has gotten off to a pretty great start. my roommate, kiki, woke up early and made a trip to the grocery store before the other {2} of us got out of bed. we awoke to the aroma of freshly made pancakes, eggs, coffee, and berries. yum! how fitting to sit in our breakfast room, eating breakfast, and listening to christmas music together. listening to pandora's christmas station made me realize how many versions of holiday classics are out there. most of them wonderful in their festive rendition. some of them not so great. but there is one song that i personally believe can never surpass {or even equal} the original... 

judy garland's "have yourself a merry little christmas". no one sings it like miss garland. her raspy yet feminine voice that evokes the emotion of savoring every little christmas moment like it will never happen quite like that again. i love her. i love this song. i love the film it's from. i love christmas, and this song sums it up beautifully.
