It is a time to see those who could not make it to Christmas. Mainly for people in the military, working on Christmas Day, or got stuck in the weather. In Ireland it is also known as “St. Stephen’s Day”. They eat leftovers like baked ham, mince pies, brandy butter, and christmas cake. Brandy butter is kind of like a frosting or I guess a cream.
They used to have holiday fox hunts but now it is illegal.
