It's when you go sing to the apple orchards to ensure a good harvest, then go about the town singing door to door to door, gathering more people until you come to the pub where everyone has drinks and sings some more.

Does this Kureha like to drink?

Just one. A yule log has to burn for the twelve days. When we bring it back, it's dressed in ribbons and wreathes.
