The Most Wonderful Time of the Year is upon us, truly. December will (hopefully) bring that first beautiful dusting of snow, twinkling lights, family reunions, and at the end of it all a chance to start fresh with a brand new year. Between now and then there are plenty of concerts, theatrical performances, parties, and feasts to catch all across New York City. The worst of winter is still a long ways off, so let's bundle up and make some plans! There's still an entire month left in 2014, read on for suggestions on how to make it merry and bright.
