At The Cocoanut Grove

I'm again forgoing my usual Original and Remake and instead posting some animated Christmas specials. I made a post like this a couple years ago, this year has more specials from the 80s that I saw as a kid. Here's five to check out.  The Snowman (1982) A Family Circus Christmas (1979) Mickey's Christmas Carol (1983) * Note: This is a TV trailer. The Berenstein Bears' Christmas Tree (1979) A Chimpmunk Christmas (1981) Until Next Time, Ashley A. 

I've made some Christmas playlists in the past and I thought I'd add another one in the mix.  I Like A Sleigh Ride (Jingle Bells) by Peggy Lee Last Christmas by Wham! Happy Xmas (War Is Over) by John Lennon & Yoko Ono, The Plastic Ono Band Santa Claus Is Coming To Town by The Jackson 5 Feliz Navidad by Jose Feliciano I've Got My Love To Keep Me Warm by Dean Martin Joy To The World by Nat King Cole Run Rudolph Run by Chuck Berry Do You Hear What I Hear by Bing Crosby Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer by Burl Ives Mele Kalikimaka by Bing Crosby and The Andrews Sisters Wonderful Christmastime by Paul McCartney There's No Place Like Home For The Holidays by Perry Como Here Comes Santa Claus by Elvis Presley     Until Next Time, Ashley A. 

Since it's December, it's time for my annual gift guide. I tried to get different shows, movies and characters from classic TV and movies and here's what I came up with.  For The Golden Girls Fan: Golden Girls Tee For The Wizard of OZ Fan: The Wizard of OZ Soundtrack Vinyl For The Mr. Roger's Neighborhood Fan: The Good Neighbor: The Life and Work of Fred Rogers by Maxwell King For The Christmas & Turner Classic Movies Fan: Christmas in the Movies: 30 Classics to Celebrate the Season by Jeremy Arnold For The Vintage Barbie Fan: Vintage Barbie Tee For The Peanuts Fan: Snoopy Mug Until Next Time, Ashley A.
