In this festive episode, Celia and Camellia dive into the whirlwind of fall and winter holidays, starting with Halloween spookiness and racing toward Christmas cheer. They chat about their unique family traditions—like Celia’s November 1st Christmas kickoff and Camellia’s humorous take on Halloween (spoiler: she’s not a fan!). Both hosts share tales of neighborhood dynamics, from Halloween gatherings with adult beverages to the joy that holiday decorations bring.
But amidst all the holiday talk, there’s one thing they can agree on disliking: daylight savings time. They discuss the struggles of adjusting family routines twice a year and explore why this tradition still exists, despite disrupting kids' sleep schedules and routines. They even wonder if we’ll ever see the end of it! And as if daylight savings isn’t enough, the hosts poke fun at the seemingly endless election season and the challenges it brings for parents juggling busy schedules.
Tune in for relatable laughs, holiday hacks, and a cozy, festive vibe.
