None of these people know what a Mummer is. Don’t you feel sad for them?

I Can See New York City From My House

Very sad indeed.  And I find that it’s hard to accurately explain Mummers to those who have never seen them.

To add to your list of things to do: spend New Year’s day in Philadelphia watching the Mummers Parade.  You won’t regret it.

What’s happening:

Just turned on the Christmas radio station.
Opening a bottle of wine.
Starting to make that moroccan chicken pot pie.

What’s about to happen:

Dancing around the kitchen, using a wooden spoon as a microphone.

A perfect Sunday afternoon.  Wish you were here.

I may or may not have just sang/rapped dc Talk’s Luv is a Verb to  my roommate.  Because I might still remember all of the lyrics, even though I haven’t listened to that album in years and years. 
Okay, that definitely just happened.  So what?  Don’t be so judgey.  ‘Luv’ is a verb.
And that’s some d(ecent) c(hristian) Talk for you.
