A Non-Carolers Song

Thursday, December 15th, 2011

Welcome to my Blissemas post. Be sure to comment at the end of my blog for a chance to be entered into the Blissemas drawing for a Kindle!

There are so many memories I have for Christmas. When I wrote my book Veils Rising I took the memories I had of Christmas growing up in St. Thomas. There is a different feeling to Christmas on the beautiful island where I grew up. When the holiday approached I would feel an excitement in the air. I’ve always equated Christmas with the smell of the baking of carrot cake, tart, and sweet bread. The sound of the steel pan playing a Christmas Carol. There is nothing like it.

One of my favorite memories was the Christmas carolers who performed in Emancipation Garden. I still remember my first time I went. I was in awe of all the various team of carolers that were there. Singing and having fun. Those in the audience joined in. One year especially I remember there was a friendly bet between two groups. One called themselves The Non-Carolers. And from the name you guessed it. The non-carolers didn’t sing all that well. Yet their enthusiasm and the good-natured rivalry between the two groups entertained everyone. It was a carol sing off that had people talking for a long time. It enhanced a tradition and became one. It was a Christmas memory that I treasure to this day.

Even though I now live in New York I still observe the some of my family traditions . I hope you enjoyed my non-carolers memory.

What are some of your holiday traditions?

Your comments here will give you an entry in the BLISSEMAS drawing for the grand prize for a kindle. The drawing will take place at the end of Blissemas. Check out more about Blissemas and the other great post here.

Have a joyus holiday season and may the new year bring you lots of wonderful moments!
