Christmas

There's no shame in the last minute gift buying game in Montana. However, you'll be narrowing your spectrum of creative Christmas presents. Practicality can take over and that's not a bad thing.

You are not alone. It seems that all of us have at least a few foods that we indulge in during the holiday season. My list is probably longer than most, and I'm OK with that.

After spending a few hours at a friend's house cooking, I now understand the allure of "video yule logs" burning on a screen.

Looking for fun things things to do this week? Shopping, strolls, markets, theater, drum circles...there's something for everyone!

It might be one of the coolest things about Christmas in Montana: big trucks, semis, and construction rigs decked out in Christmas lights touring around Belgrade. This weekend the Belgrade Christmas Convoy returns in 2022.

We're Christmas light people. You'll find them on the house, in the garage, in the living room, the back deck, the front porch, and wrapped around a few outside trees. Christmas lights belong anywhere you can find an outlet.

Check it out.

Cakes? Pies? Cookies? No way. For me, it's the homemade Chex Mix. With NOTHING but the Corn Chex. Everything else in the store-bought version is unnecessary fluff IMHO.

Some of these may be in bad taste, or you may even think they're inappropriate. Most will find a little holiday humor. Whatever you think about the content, I think we can all agree, these are some ugly Christmas sweaters.

It's yet another packed week of fun events in the Bozeman area. From family-friendly to adults only, there's something for everyone in the family.

I don't even try to hide my love of taco trucks. Or tacos in real restaurants. Or tacos at my house. Or your house, for that matter. Tacos are happiness. If you know someone who feels the same, we've got some holiday gift ideas.

Montana made headlines last year with it's stunning parade of giant trucks fully lit up in Christmas lights and decorations. Thankfully, it returns this year AND with more opportunity to see the trucks and meet the drivers.
