Epiphany is also the day for La Befana! The latest in my slightly sinister winter holiday folklore collection: the Italian Christmas witch. La Befana is a witch of Italian folklore who brings sweets & gifts to good children and coal or cinders to bad children on Epiphany Eve. She flies on her broom and comes down the chimney. It’s dangerous to watch her. She’s both grandmotherly and a witch, beloved & ridiculed. 🧵

My 8” x 8” linocut print with 4.5” x 6” printed area in dark blue ink shows La Befana, a crone or which standing on an tiled Italian rooftop by a chimney, carrying a large hamper of toys on her back. She’s wearing a dress with patched apron and patchwork shawl and pointed witch hat. She has scraggly hair, wrinkled face and large eyes that look directly at the viewer. The night sky behind includes stars and crescent moon.

Frankfurt's old town in the evening against the city skyline. The streets of the old town are illuminated by the warm colors of the Christmas market, contrasting beautifully with the blue tones of the rest of the city.

When you finish watching the He-Man and She-Ra Christmas Special and you find out that the random Santa Claus that appeared out of nowhere in the last few minutes, and hadn't been part of the plot up to that point, was actually He-Man all along.

Two images of my tuxedo cat Tiffie standing next to the PC monitor which is showing an instance from the He-Man and She-Ra: A Christmas Special, with Adora/She-Ra standing next to He-Man/Prince Adam, who is wearing a classic Santa Claus suit, a fake belly, and has his hands up near his face in shock as she has pulled his fake beard off, while both Adora and the blue alien puppy like creature are looking directly at him.

In the first picture Tiffie is just staring towards the camera, in the bottom pic she has opened her mouth in a way that makes her look excited and surprised. — Two images of my tuxedo cat Tiffie standing next to the PC monitor which is showing an instance from the He-Man and She-Ra: A Christmas Special, with Adora/She-Ra standing next to He-Man/Prince Adam, who is wearing a classic Santa Claus suit, a fake belly, and has his hands up near his face in shock as she has pulled his fake beard off, while both Adora and the blue alien puppy like creature are looking directly at him.

Christmas season is over, so now it's okay to play it.

Fun fact: I actually like this song. Despite my usual music tastes being more... indie(?) I genuinely love George Michael and Wham. Probably because they were my first foray into grown-up music?

(and "Careless Whispers" was number one just when I had my first crush, but that's another story. Fun fact: we never dated, but we're still vaguely in touch, 41 years later)

#PuertoRico has the longest christmas season in the world. it officially starts on the day of gringo turkeymaggedon and ends on Three Kings Day.

UNOFFICIALLY, when i was a kid, Christmas didn't end until el día de La Candelaria.

so after Las Octavitas, Día de Reyes and Fiestas de San Sebastián, many portorros declared Las Navidades officially over when we burned our arbolitos de crísmas on THE 2ND OF FEBRUARY.

so for +20 years of my life, #christmas lasted for 2½ months

In Scotland, the days between Christmas and hogmanay are known as "daft days."

Along with many others, I like to call these days "Betwixtmas."
