TNFro Is Reading Season or Podcast Finale…I haven’t decided Yet. Talking about Inheritance, Woke History, Pop Culture, and Unreali-TV Mena Not Invited and #RHOA-Nay Nay Not Down – feliciabaxter

  I forgot which writer said it's better to be at the end of something instead of the beginning. But what I do know this is the last new episode besides going live every now and again.  I don't know if this is just the season finale or if this is gonna be the last new episode ever of my podcast,  but I know I'm gonna take this time to rethink what direction I'm going to go.   And I want to get back to my first love which is writing. I guess I am just in enough time for NaNoWriMo 2023.  I want to take a skill share class on screenwriting and may be tightening up my book writing skills. I  also want to concentrate on things that I like to do and learn better skills to do it. But also concentrating on building relationships and only working with people that I like.   All good things must come to an end…my passion project hasn't started to pay for itself.

When I originally prepared this episode I became aware of just how little I knew of the celebration of Christmas in other countries, and how many of those traditions I would love to incorporate into my own celebrations!

In this episode of my 12 Podcasts of Christmas series, I will endeavor to explore Christmas Celebrations in  other exotic locations such as Egypt, Greece, and India. Although the celebrations can vary by date the focus on joy and hope represented in the birth of Christ.

Coptic Christians although a religious minority with their celebrations becoming more commercialized this century, start their celebration of the 43 days lead up, Advent or Kiahk,  to Christmas Day January 7th. Advent is a fasting and refrain from eating meat, egg, butter during this time.

Coptic Christmas Eve there is a special Liturgy followed by parties and festivities on Coptic Christmas Day in which Kahk, or sweet biscuits 

are given as gift and there is a massive dinner adding back all those foods paired with lamb stew…summers!!! Baba Noel, Father Christmas makes an appearance giving blessings and presents to the nice!

And I will conclude with another reading from Dickens, A Christmas Carol.  “God bless you merry gentleman! May nothing you dismay!”
