Sleigh Bells Ring
I visit communities in need and delivery baskets of food, cook for them, and provide essentials so they can enjoy the way.
Emilio P.
I celebrate Oplatek, a polish tradition, and pass a very thin slice of bread around. After a shared bite, I hug (or kiss) and wish my family members a merry christmas
Jessica E.
You better not cry until you hear from the King. I want to open presents only when the king finishes his speech
Iain Hunter
Watch out for the axe. I cut down my own christmas tree
Marco E.
I wrap 3 gifts in odd ways and play games, the winner selects a gift from the pile or steals a gift from another player. If you're not clever, you can end up empty headed on Christmas.
Who is Marc vB.
I head to the village church at midnight, after church we listen to the musicians play from the church tower.
Hannes L
After church, I take my family back home and we bake our individual pizza
Steve W.
You better not cry at ONAM, a harvest festival. It's the one festival which is celebrated by all regions in Kerala.
Harrish S.
I start the day with a family movie at the movie theater and follow it up a cozy dinner at home with the family
Ernst S.
A meal for that comes around once a year. We have port tenderloin, kielbasa, sauerkraut, spinach, rice, and black eye peas. Each food brings you good tidings into the new year.
Chad J.
I play bingo to pass the time until midnight rings. But I have to watch up for those family members who might place an X on their bingcard.
Hugo F.
I enjoy clam chowder and wait until for after midnight mass to have breakfast.
Michelle L.
I match my family's PJ. We started our own tradition by wearing matching PJs.
Andrew L.
I celebrate big on the 24th with family and while fish is the traditional dish, I prefer to have beef.
Petr J.
I have a unique one: We have breakfast at night. I make my mom's breakfast quiche and other favorite recipies.
Kelly B.
Family for 24 hours. I spend the day with family from the start. I wrap gifts, cook, go to church, eat christmas dinner, play games, dance, wait until midnight, and open the gifts. We then play with the gifts with received and go to bed until the early morning of the 25th. Nothing happens on the 25th because I am recovering from the night before.
