Get Yourself A Clementine Immediately

    The best part of the holiday season isn't lights or decorations. Sorry, everyone.

    So you're still full from Thanksgiving, and probably reeling from all of the money you spent on Black Friday and Cyber Monday...

    Now, you've got a few awkward weeks until ~the actual holidays~.

    And people love these simultaneously hellish, stressful, and boring weeks before Christmas and Hanukkah!

    But what if I told you there was a shining light in these few sometimes-awful weeks filled with obligation? A tiny, wonderful shred of hope?

    IT'S CLEMENTINES.

    Clementines, those sweet morsels of citrusy goodness, are inarguably the best part of the pre-holiday season, in those several unbearably schmaltzy weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas.

    Seriously, guys, if you want a clementine (you do), The Time Is Now.

    They're sweet (but not too sweet)! They're portable! They're easy to peel! They're healthy! Kids LOVE THEM!

    They're the opposite of stressful and depressing! Clementines are tiny balls of sunshine and happy during an otherwise gluttonous season.

    There are very few things better than winter citrus.

    You can bake them in bread...

    Mull them in wine...

    Pose with them seductively on a couch (??)...

    And, of course, enjoy them in their untarnished virgin clementine glory.

    Which I am going to do now...for the sixth time today.🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊
