It’s been a quiet week on the grid, so this is one of those weeks, every now and then, we can appreciate that and really delve into all the entries without feeling frantic about the reading load. This week brought out 21 bloggers with their best stuff and a tight race in the top row five. Let’s get to the winners.
Crowd favorite
“How to Screw Up Christmas on a Magnificent Scale” by ML at I Miss You When I Blink
Typically in my little blurb here about our winners I write some pithy words about the excellence of the crowd favorite. And ML’s winning piece, “How to Screw Up Christmas on a Magnificent Scale,” is excellent. But I don’t want to spoil the fun by deconstructing it here. Suffice it to say, she is the most horrible person in all of holiday history and you definitely want to keep her away from your children if you are a fan of wonder. Click through for the punch line. Congratulations, ML! Your crowd favorite badge awaits you in the sidebar.
Congrats also to the rest of our top row five: Gwen, Bill, Samantha, and Madeline! Go grab your well-earned top row five badge in the sidebar.

Win-win
