Ich bin wieder ein kleines Kind, und wenn ich in die Stadt gehe, ist das so, als würde man spielen, und das Weihnachtsessen ist eine Ratte, die über einem Kamin sitzt. Ich erinnere mich, dass es Tischreihen und eine Hierarchie der Sitzplätze gab, weil ich nie am Kindertisch vorbeikam, der ganz am Ende, fast in der Küche, als Kartentisch diente. Trotzdem war die gebratene Ratte immer noch lecker. Dazu gab es meist Kartoffelpuffer. Mein Onkel sorgte dafür, dass alle Kinder zwei Schuss Schnaps bekamen. Oh, das gute Leben!
My 2 children are adult now early 20s. But I make a potato salad every Christmas Eve and dish it out to family members as we all Love home made potato salad. Mash potatoes, Mayonnaise, onion , peas, carrots all mixed together and mashed up in a bowl it’s delicious served cold with Turkey. Merry Christmas 🤶 from the UK 🇬🇧 xx
Yummy! We love potato salad too!! I’ve never thought to eat it at Christmas though. Around here it seems to be more of a dinner dish. That just goes to show that we each have our own idea of what makes a special tradition! Merry Christmas! ❤️
Thank you for sharing your ideas for the Christmas season and how you celebrate each year with your family. I hope to pIck up some of your suggestions in the future. Its good to know that you reach out to the less fortunate during this season. Hope you and your beloved family had a great celebration and wishing you a blessed 2023! Looking forward to your next!
I made a gingerbread house for my sister and her family one year and they were absolutely thrilled! She said they usually do that but ran out of time so the gift was very meaningful to them!
My siblings and I used to make our own Advent calendars, with scenes from the Christmas story and Bible verses in each little window. Many hours went into those calendars!
We do several things on this list! We also have a few vintage holiday books that are the same ones my grandmother used to read to me. we We like to read them together, even as our kids are entering their teen years. I’m not a huge baker, but we make lots of no-bake holiday treats like popcorn with melted chocolate and crushed candy canes, reindeer food (Chex mix muddy buddies), and potato candy. And we make applesauce ornaments every year.
I’ve never heard of that! I love that you read aloud with each other! I feel like it always seems like you are going on an adventure together when you read out loud! ❤️
What are YOUR favorite simple Christmas traditions?! I would love to hear about them!
My husband and I sit by the Fireplace with the Christmas tree, Coffee, Christmas music and enjoying
Vintage Christmas magazines.
That sounds absolutely lovely! ❤️

What a special blessing to have the same books passed down from generation to generation! So special! ❤️
It’s just me and the husband. I read him short stories from “Holidays on Ice” from David Sedaris. This tradition would be appropriate for teens on up.
