OOh, Christmas! I do love it so. I'm not quite sure why...our numbers have dwindled to two on Christmas day, and the actual day never quite compares to the way it all went when Santa used to plan it (being an only child, these days weren't quite as long ago as they were for the rest of you) and the end result is that you feel totally bloated, hot and somewhat tipsy in front of your mother dearest. Still, it's fun.
Christmas traditions, anyone? In our house, mutti insists on reading me The Night Before Christmas and other assorted Golden Books of Yuletide theme and we light as many candles as we can find, and drink sherry and christmas mince pies...
