How do you spend your time at ********* Xmas?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:Pretty darned traditional for me. ********* is about family, and getting together with family always means food. We generally have the traditional ********* tree thing on ********* morning, followed by a brunch. Then we generally have our big meal in the early afternoon followed by the “turkey coma” (where the entire family seems to disappear into various rooms to take a nap), and then leftovers and more family time in the evening.
