A couple of weeks ago on the wedding blog, we talked about couples who are basically DJ'ing their own weddings by putting the songs they want on an iPod (or another digital player). So why not use the same idea for your holiday gatherings? If time is short, there is absolutely no reason to run all over town looking for Christmas music. Just sit down at your computer and download Mp3s of your favorite Christmas songs for your digital player. Play your songs at dinner or for cider-and-conversation after dinner. And just to make sure you wow everyone with your musical know-how, below is a teeny-tiny list of what's out there to get you started. (Some songs are free, others are .99 to download at Amazon.com) African-American Christmas Classics
