We had been all gathering at my cousins house, where we brought something. She cooks both turkey & ham, and ALL the side fixings she fixed & others brought...and lay it out buffet style. We'd eat at the table, with overflow of people into the living room watching Football on tv. Everyone was invited, even our Pets! It was awesome.I'll miss that this year because we moved so far away.
Christmas Eve my dad used to make traditional Sausage Kolaches and Strudel.(we're Czech background). I try to carry on that tradition now that he's passed on.
It's kind of sad now that whoever is not deceased lives far away. "sniff"....now I"m going to get even more nostalgic than I've been this week.
