Fred Astaire Friday

In lieu of Fred Astaire, today I am posting "Christmas 1950", a short film showing Christmas customs around the world circa 1950.

To anyone who protests that on this Friday, December 26, we are no longer celebrating Christmas, I beg to differ. Christmas lasts at least until January 6, (Epiphany) and some say February 2 (Purification of Mary/Candlemas)

  1. Very interesting video. We've always celebrated Christmas at least until January 6th. And we'll be celebrating with YOUR family this Sunday.
