Today (Sunday 30th Nov), is the first advent of the Christmas season. This is a traditional custom in many countries of Europe, to make a wreath with four candles to light one each on the four Sundays preceding Christmas day. I have grown up with this German custom since childhood, as my own late father is from Germany. I love this tradition and wanted to share it with my friends here! Athene, I think you too follow this custom from your own Germanic heritage? Anyway, I wish everyone a wonderful, safe and blessed Advent Season!

I always celebrate Advent too. I'm of German background and it's a tradition in my family.
