This popular holiday drink is traditionally made by combining raw eggs, rum and dairy and leaving it all in the fridge for up to six weeks. We basically drink our weight in the stuff every December -- how on earth have we managed to avoid being sick all this time?

Director Bob Clark’s classic holiday comedy has a distinction that few family movies can claim: Most people don’t mind watching it over and over again.

In an attempt to heal not only the ones directly connected to the tragedy at Newtown, CT, this past Friday, but the entire town, retired special education teacher Michael Cragin has decided to offer out hugs — not from him, but from his beloved bulldog Truman.

On Christmas morning, there's nothing worse than getting a bad reaction to one of your presents. This is especially prevalent among the younger crowd, particularly those under age 12. Why?

The holiday season isn't just a time for good tidings and spreading cheer, it's also a month-long occasion where frustration builds to a point of near-explosion. And lucky for Conan O'Brien, he's discovered a perfect way to unleash those irritations unto the holiday that makes us all crazy, stressed and maybe a little bit thankful -- beating the heck out of everything Christmas with a slo-mo camer

There's something about the holidays that puts a lot of us here at TheFW into extra crafty moods.

If you're looking for a way to get get into the Christmas spirit and hep out a wonderful cause at the same time, have we got a great idea. It's a brand new CD/DVD 'Christmas in Maine."

Here's your daily dose of cute -- Santa pretending to sleep for a picture with a sleeping baby.

As a role model for kindness and generosity, you can't do much better than Santa. But let's face it -- he's not exactly the picture of health. If the jolly old elf can't bring himself to drop a few pounds, at least he's recently given up smoking.

Ladies and gentleman, we're back at it again -- it's another round of dogs in holiday costumes. This time, however, there's a huge difference-- we're not responsible in the least bit! See, these dogs did it all to themselves.

Scotty McCreery brought a huge dose of country-style holiday cheer to breakfast TV on Tuesday morning (Dec. 11), performing his rendition of the classic 'Let It Snow' on 'Good Morning America.'

With Christmas only two weeks away, Santa is a pretty busy guy these days. He has to double check all presents are made, organize final copies of the naughty and nice lists and do some last-minute reindeer grooming so they're in tip-top shape for Christmas. It's a stressful few weeks, but Santa's been doing it for like, hundreds of years, so he has the whole thing down pat.

The Salvation Army of Waterville will be holding their 6th annual Christmas dinner on Christmas Day. It’ll be held at the Waterville Elks, 76 Industrial Street, from 11 to 2pm. This is a free dinner to anyone that wants to attend. As they say, no one should eat Christmas dinner alone...

Christmastime should be about family, generosity and good cheer, but sometimes there are a few baddies lurking about to spoil everyone’s fun. We’re talking about nasty Christmas villains here. Thankfully most of them are merely figments of some storyteller’s imagination. But not all of them.
