'Tis the season to be jarry, Fa ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra! We're gonna have the hap, hap, happiest Christmas since Bing Crosby tap-danced with Danny f*cking Kaye. Good night, Santa. Good night, Mrs. Santa's sister. Merry Christmas ya filthy animal."
With the dissolution of her marriage and the death of her mother, Cheryl Strayed has lost all hope. After years of reckless, destructive behavior, she makes a rash decision. With absolutely no experience, driven only by sheer determination, Cheryl hikes more than a thousand miles of the Pacific Crest Trail, alone. Wild powerfully captures the terrors and pleasures of one young woman forging ahead against all odds on a journey that maddens, strengthens, and ultimately heals her. -Fox Searchlight ... And yes, it made me cry.

ITV's Text Santa charity telethon returned from across the pond, and featured a very special Downton Abbey Christmas skit; featuring a few extra familiar famous faces. If George Clooney(!), Jeremy Piven and a certain absolutely fabulous guest angel weren't enough for all you Masterpiece Classic addicts-- seeing the usually stuffy, uptight proper cast let loose and have fun is a pure holiday delight. Watch Part 1 and Part 2.
Pride is inspired by an extraordinary true story. It's the summer of 1984, Margaret Thatcher is in power and the National Union of Mineworkers is on strike, prompting a London-based group of gay and lesbian activists to raise money to support the strikers' families. Initially rebuffed by the Union, the group identifies a tiny mining village in Wales and sets off to make their donation in person. As the strike drags on, the two groups discover that standing together makes for the strongest union of all. - CBS ... And yes, it made me cry.

When you've run out of Love It or List It, Property Brothers, House Hunters and Cousins... What's an HGTV addict to do? Well thanks to Netflix, start a DIY Nicole Curtis marathon as she transforms long-forgotten, neglected properties into the restored gems they were once built to be.
The perfect addition to my already perfect holiday playlist.
Especially my favorite track: White Winter Hymnal

In the days leading up to opening night, he battles his ego and attempts to recover his family, his career, and himself. - Fox Searchlight
#ThatGiggle!
Was it just me, or were tuxedo cats like, everywhere this month?! Whether begging for loves, hosting holiday dinner parties for pups, pondering about Christmas or failed frozen fishing; Adorable oreo pussies took over the interweb. And for good reason, black-and-white kitties are the best. Cutest. Smartest. Let's see this trend continue into the new year! Me-ow!
Something strange happened this year. 2014 will go down as the year that Hell froze over and I officially stopped being a Taylor Swift hater... and actually started to become a mini-fan. The lovely holiday video she shared playing Santa for her admiring fans definitely helped the cause. Oh and she loves cats. More bonus points. Watch it HERE.
Now before you judge to harshly, let me explain. When you have a nephew who is obsessed with animals, especially with kitties and doggies (....and we're talking legit obsessed) and said nephew recently broken his leg and consequentially was in a cast all-month long, Grumpy Cat really came to the rescue. We watched Worst Christmas Ever together more times than I can count, and it really did entertain him. And if I'm being honest, perhaps a little bit for me too. (Clearly, my love of Aubrey Plaza has no boundaries!) Well, what I'm trying to say is, it wasn't as terrible as I feared. But for Grumpy's sake.... Worst Christmas Special Ever.
