Posted on January 7, 2025 by Stella

If this were 2021, they would be telling conservatives to accept the loss, sit down, and be quiet.

Remember this?

The Federalist

In a total failure to accept a clear electoral loss, leftists plan to gather in Washington, D.C., and other large cities across the nation on Jan. 20, Donald Trump’s Inauguration Day. They claim their aim is to “defeat Trump’s extreme right, billionaire agenda.”

Good luck with that, losers.

Music of the day – We Three Kings

Posted on January 6, 2025 by Stella

This song is appropriately sung on Epiphany, or Three Kings Day. It represents the time when the Wise Men, also known as the Magi, came to visit Jesus, and is the official end of the Christmas season. Epiphany is a Christian feast day that celebrates the revelation of God incarnate as Jesus Christ.

People from countries all across the world celebrate Epiphany on January 6, and while the festivities may differ by culture, they almost always include a deliciously sweet cake. In New Orleans, Louisiana, it’s customary to buy or bake a King Cake. This round cake is filled with cinnamon, topped with white glaze, and sprinkled with purple, green, and gold sugar. A figure of baby Jesus is hidden inside and whoever finds it in their slice of cake is “king” or “queen” for the day.

Epiphany; end of Christmastide

Posted on January 6, 2025 by Stella

Epiphany, (from the Greek epiphaneia, “manifestation”), or Three Kings Day, is a Christian holiday commemorating the first manifestation of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, represented by the Magi, and celebrates the revelation of God incarnate as Jesus Christ.

Adoration of the Magi, Bartolomé_Esteban_Murillo

Epiphany is one of the three principal and oldest festival days of the Christian church (the other two are Easter and Christmas). Roman Catholics, Lutherans, Anglicans, and other Western churches observe the feast on January 6, while some Eastern Orthodox churches celebrate Epiphany on January 19, since their Christmas Eve falls on January 6.

Epiphany is celebrated with special pastries in many countries, and children often receive small gifts in their shoes in honor of the Magi’s gifts to the infant Jesus.

Matthew 2 (KJV):

Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,

2 Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.

One of my favorite towns: Telluride, Colorado. I’ve never been there in the winter! Located in the southwest part of the state, it got its name from the minerals found in the area, including silver and gold.It is a great area for 4-wheeling, beautiful landscapes and historically significant mines and ghost towns.

What is Twelfth Night?

Posted on January 5, 2025 by Stella

Traditionally, Twelfth Night is the last of the 12 days of Christmas, January 5, and also known as the Eve of Epiphany.

According to Wikipedia:

In medieval and Tudor England, Candlemas traditionally marked the end of the Christmas season, although later, Twelfth Night came to signal the end of Christmastide, with a new but related season of Epiphanytide running until Candlemas. A popular Twelfth Night tradition was to have a bean and pea hidden inside a Twelfth-night cake; the “man who finds the bean in his slice of cake becomes King for the night while the lady who finds a pea in her slice of cake becomes Queen for the night.” Following this selection, Twelfth Night parties would continue and would include the singing of Christmas carols, as well as feasting.
