Noelophile I'm a California new-media reporter who has loved Christmas for as long as I can remember!

We cover Christmas in general, California Christmas in particular, and the rest of the year, those who "honor Christmas in their hearts and keep it all the year"! We publish interviews with California-based independent crafters, explore special community events for Christmas and year-round in California, and give you updates on books and movies we like! Let us know if you'd like to receive information on our upcoming online webinars.

https://noelophile.com/?p=20351 Can you believe I'm posting about Christmas events before HALLOWEEN? That never used to be my tradition.
But--times change. Events sell out (one time slot on the December 6th date is already showing zero availability!). And I don't want to disappoint anyone who's planning something special for Christmas season.
So, here are three special events, currently booking or just about to!

https://noelophile.com/?p=20344 Starting off our Christmas season, 2025 posts with an interview with Jalene Ressegue of Custom Crazy Candy Cakes! Jalene will be exhibiting her work at Torrance Craftsmen's Guild's 56th annual "Arts & Crafts Fall Faire"--and if you would like to see her candy cakes (no actual "cake" involved, these are spectacular candy towers!) and perhaps order for Christmas, now is the time! (She'll also be making some for Thanksgiving!)

Jalene starts with a theme, chooses different types of candy and arranges the confections, accordingly, on a layered base. Her “cakes” are actually candy towers, and they’re customized for Christmas, Halloween, Thanksgiving, birthdays, graduations, Valentine’s Day…
