You know how people get crazy and seem all wackadoo during the holidays?! I was one of them. A man in a car cut me off and I screamed, "What the f**k!" Well, polish up Mom of the Year trophy (again) because my daughter was in the car and asked me what I yelled. Of course I told her the truth, "What a schmuck!"
I write this blog post as much for me as for anyone who needs to sparkle yourself up so you can dazzle during the holi-daze. We have to fill up our cup in order to have it runneth over.

12 Days of Christmas Countdown, inspired by Dr. Oz The Good LIfe magazine.:
1. Sugar lips – Makes me think of my favorite karaoke song. I sing badly, so awful that people shush me in church. But sweetie, I can belt out the tune, "Pour Some
Sugar on Me." Now you can pour it all over your lips. For those mistletoe
moments, we want them to be velvet soft.
Gently massage this brown sugar scrub on your pucker, and lick off lips. 2 tsp brown sugar, 1/2 tsp olive oil, 2
tsp honey.
2. Take an email vacation day – set automatic reply to feel the peace and
joy.
3. Tinsel nail polish. Pretty for the holidays. This
brand is great because you can do it yourself and mistakes don’t show. The color is Gilty Party by Sally Hansen! Woo hoo!
4. BYOT – Bring Your Own Tree
by making a Christmas tree for your desk from cuttings and a cup/vase.
5. “Christmas Spirit” drinkie makes for a jolly time. Cocktail or Mocktail. I actually start mixing it up on Thanksgiving because it is sooooo good. Thank you Emily Mazzella for the recipe.
2 cups orange juice
2 cups vodka
2 tablespoons of sugar
2 tablespoons Quantro
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground allspice
1/8 tsp nutmeg
6. Sparkle powder yourself before every shopping trip or wrapping session. Available at Victoria's Secret.
7. Smiling’s my favorite.
Watch the movie ELF to get out of a cotton-headed-ninny-muggings mood.
9. Glitter Flowers – spray flowers with glitter spray from Michael's. http://www.michaelsfloralsupply.com/glitterspray.html
10. Holiday Jam with Pandora.
Pick your song and get a whole playlist in same genre. http://www.pandora.com/
11. Best Scent Ever. Make
your home smell sweet without baking. 1 cup cranberries, sliced orange peel, 1 tbsp cloves, 3 cinnamon sticks, 2
cups water into saucepan and simmer for 30 minutes.
12. Sit on Santa’s lap and
BELIEVE that good things are coming your way! For more fun, watch my Pop Up Comedy Quest For Xmas Cheer. http://youtu.be/5G2Iml-t8UM
Happy Holidays!
