Christmas Eve is is either family time with a movie and finger foods, or
is spent at DH's parent's home--along with his 10 brothers and sisters
and their children (shiver). DH's mom owned a restaurant for twenty-plus
years (she needed to--to feed all of the kids) and the food is always
out-of-this world.
Christmas Day is always spent at home. We have bagels from the Ithaca
Bakery and fresh fruit (the oranges from our stockings!) for breakfast,
and lasagna, salad, and garlic bread for dinner (my parents--and
sometimes the inlaws--joined us for dinner), and we eat lots of
chocolate and Christmas cookies between meals.
