Guest guest Posted October 4, 2004 Report Share Posted October 4, 2004 There is nothing embarrassing about a family having a FAMILY tradition for the holidays I think each family should have their own that speaks to their heart and comfort of the people in their lives and around their table. In my family it is tradition to have paella in remembrance of my husbands father who passed away 4 yrs ago, he started the tradition and it will always be. We all help in preparing the meal to celebrate the family, the spanish tradition, the holiday and each other, we tell stories about times with him and special things that happened with each other through the year. It is where we find our heart and comfort Nicky momad30044 I always find it embarrassing to admit that my family and I have pizza for Thanksgiving. We make it a " special " pizza, everybody picking out what topping they want...some years we make two smaller ones, if we can't agree on one. We'll have a beautiful salad, wine...well, not the boys...just me and my husband...garlic bread and the traditional pumpkin pie. I always buy something incredibly chocolatey and gooey for my oldest son who doesn't like pumpkin. We spend the day doing family things and have always tried to put less emphasis on the meal and more on being thankful. -- " If you haven't gotten where you're going, you're not there yet.
