Good morning Phoenix! It’s Monday once again, and Christmas will be upon us quite soon.
So – departing from my usual posts, I’m going to list some more holiday
traditions. If you don’t have any traditions of your own yet, it’s
never too late to start. Here are some that revolve around the foods
served:
• Make traditional dishes for your holiday meals and
include foods from your culture or foods you ate growing up. Ask for
recipes from relatives to keep your family food traditions alive.
• Organize a cookie-baking party. Invite friends and family, or a group
of your kids' friends. Ask everyone to bring their favorite holiday
cookie recipe.
• Make the same entree for Christmas Eve (such as
stew) and Christmas Day (ham or turkey) every year. Or, choose a
side-dish that becomes the yearly tradition, even if it's just for
laughs.
• Make a gingerbread house with your family. Those pre-made
sets make it easy and provide you with everything you’ll need! Another
option is to use graham crackers, some royal icing and candy you've
saved for this purpose.
Do you have any family food traditions?
Tell us about it in the comments – who knows, you might inspire someone
else’s new tradition!
