I just can't let go of traditions, for Thanksgiving or Christmas. I deck the house inside and out, I shop for gifts 2 weeks before, so I can really enjoy it. I bake,bake bake. this year tho I have lots of wedding cookies in the freezer from my DD wedding ( I baked over a thousand cookies).I will pull those out, the ones that look to wedding ish I won't use. The family comes on Christmas Eve for a feast and then we do it all over again on Christmas day. I pull out all the fine china and silver for all holidays. I don't skimp on anything! There better be lots of Snow, since we are skiers we head to the slopes.
