Okay, as a lover of all things Christmas, I’m confused. What day of Christmas is it anyway?
I know it’s Epiphany, but isn’t it supposed to be the Twelfth Day of Christmas, as well? Did I miss my Twelfth Night revel? Was I supposed to start counting on Christmas Day, or the day after? My certainty of Christmas lore is shaken.
According to what I glean from Wikipedia (which is never wrong), nobody quite knows the correct answer – or they think they do and that everyone else is full of s***.
I’d better put on my yellow stockings and cross garters just in case.

Perhaps that explains the Shakespearean subtitle, “What You Will.”
