Holiday Happenings

Happy Holidays! As a new Pampered Chef consultant, I'd like to use this blog as a fun place for people to find new recipes, and learn fun new ways to share them with their friends and families. It's a WONDERFUL time of year, my personal favorite, and I know most of us will be spending it with someone special. 

So what are YOU doing this year?

This will be the first Christmas away from my family, so my fiance and I will be starting some new traditions of our own, for the family we're becoming soon. We both have unique family histories, and family traditions. In my family, we celebrated Christmas day, Jesus's birthday, with a (surprise!) birthday cake for Jesus. Mom always thought it was fitting that He should be celebrated at least as good as we celebrate ourselves. For Matt, his family celebrated Thanksgiving on that Friday, so they could all be together when his dad came home from work. So many more things we both loved, but you get the idea. 

So what family traditions run in your home? Any favorite recipes or treats? Leave a comment!
