From the Editor’s Desk (ahem, Workbench):
Ho ho hello!
Itโs me, your friendly neighborhood workshop elf, here to share the most exciting news. Thatโs right, the sleigh bells are ringing, the cocoa is steaming, and the confetti is flying because this is the month we unwrap Modern South Magazine for the first time!
This holiday season has already been among my busiest and jolliest. But between hammering together toy trains, decking the halls, and putting the finishing touches on your new favorite Southern-focused news source, weโve whipped up something extra special just for you: the December Toolkit!
Inside, youโll find recipes straight from Mrs. Clausโs kitchen, a merry bucket list to keep you feeling festive all month long, and a sleighful of events to help you celebrate in true holiday spirit.
So, whether youโre singing carols by the fire, hanging stockings with care, or sneaking an extra peppermint cocoa (we wonโt tell Santa!), this toolkit is here to make your December as magical as a snow-dusted Christmas Eve.
Wishing you a very happy holiday season filled with lots of love, joy, and holiday cheer.
Laughing all the way,
Kellie
