The hollidays will usely be a small family thing,with the exception of my pool team christmas gift exchange then my son has a get together with frinds.Most of my family has either gone over the bridge or live a long way off
in this case we exchange cards plus phone calls.I do decorate a bit but don't go over bord with it,I also do some charity/volunteer work when I can to help the season be better for folks who are in need.I find the hollidays a lot over done with commershalism and the gimmie gimmie thing.All the hollidays use to be a big thing in my family with a big tree,gift giveing,fancy meals and all.But without the folks that made it special it has dwindled to what it is.AS for special recepies I try to do something diffrent now and then even tho I still bake to many things that either end up in the freezer or trash if we cant eat it all.I like apple pies,James(my son) likes cherry so there is one of each the at some point a make a butter rum cake then som italian pastries.By then all the health changes we have made to get in better health and lose weight have gone right out the window.Oh heck thats what new years is for,to start all over again.
