Holiday season making you feel blue? Well we have some news that will enlighten you. Forget the elves and reindeer this year, ponies are here and celebrating with cheer! So get out the eggnog, heavily spiked with rum – because look out holidays here we come!
1. A Starbs Peppermint Mocha will warm your day. Together with gingerbread it’s the only way.
2. Roots has fun hoodies that support our team. Because stylish do-gooding is the ideal dream!
3. The Bell goes ring, but that’s not our thing. Put on the Bing and let his music sing!
4. Give Tommy a kiss and your cheeks will blush. Inside for some shopping so you beat the rush.
5. Take a weekend to ski with pals up north. It sure beats the mall, the fake Santa and dwarf.
6. Save a life this year, or two, or three! Sign the seal hunt petition and you’ll help set them free.
7. Skate with your love at Nathan Phillips Square. Even attempt a waltz jump if you so dare.
8. Get creative, and make a personal gift. DeSerres on Spadina can give you a lift.
9. Try roasting the turkey yourself this year. And attend a cooking class so your family can’t fear.
10. Last but not least, spread your love near and far. And be sure to attend the parties that have open bar.

I love that you made christmas about ‘doing’ and not buying. I wish that people would talk about their favorite christmas experience. (NOT unwrapping a gift!).
