Christmas food

The Christmas for Veteran’s Families outreach program allows people of the Colorado Springs area to share the spirit of Christmas with a family in our community by providing the children of disabled veterans with a toy and Christmas Dinner to help make the holidays more special. We will be working directly with the military community to reach families who would otherwise go without a joyful Christmas. Join us for our annual, Joy of Christmas Food and Toy campaign at Garden…

In center city, England 1867, the week before christmas. Fog settles and church bells ring. People walk the streets, greeting with a, “Merry christmas to you.” as people buy bores and toys and trinkets for their family and children. The spirit of the season is in the air. Not a shred of, “Bah-Humbug”. Now go forward a few years and you find people speeding down the highway rushing to the next Wal-mart in town, trying to buy that new video game, or the new tablet he wanted. Parents find it…

Imagine a world where there is no Christmas; people would be miserable without the holiday. I adore many other holidays such as: the Fourth of July, Thanksgiving, Easter, et cetera, but Christmas is easily my favorite. There are multiple reasons as to why it is my favorite whether it is the food, culture, or even the fulfilling memories. Here are various senses on why I love everything about Christmas. First, there are presents given and received during Christmas and it reminds people that if…

there are Christmas elves. Dinky was a forest elf. It’s not that he didn’t like being an elf. Dinky, just didn’t want to be a forest elf. For as long as he could remember in his short 12 years of life, Dinky had always wanted to be a Christmas elf. Wouldn’t it be grand to live at the North Pole with Santa year round and make toys? Every six years, Santa and DoJo, the leader of the Christmas elves, would have a contest. All elves under the age of 13 who wanted a chance at being a Christmas…

All the people living there got to help with everything getting ready for Christmas. It was Christmas Morning, Kyra got breakfast ready while Brooke got everyone up. They gathered by a fire and sung Christmas songs while their food was prepping. They all loved having Christmas with each other opening gifts. It was the next day, they had a couple of older people who could not take care of each other and so they had them fill…

Ok all you nay sayers, it's finally time for you to begin to celebrate Christmas. You were the epitome of the Grinch when the stores put out their Christmas decorations in August. You whined about how Christmas was going to "take over or overshadow Thanksgiving" Now you have no excuse. And for the record, yeah Christmas is supposed to overshadow Thanksgiving. One is about our being Thankful and diving into a food orgy. The other is about the Incarnation of God. And before you get upset with…

An Italian American Christmas Eve: Being of Italian American descent food plays a major part in all holiday celebrations; let’s face it, food plays a major part in my day-to-day life! Christmas Eve in my family meant a fish and seafood feast. The traditional, typical meal includes at least seven fish dishes. The celebration is meant to commemorate the wait for the birth of Jesus (Vigilla di Natale) at midnight. Christmas Eve was considered a fasting day which means that no meat can be eaten.…

came from, shoving all the snow and snow slide away to keep Gabriel warm, but the snow kept getting in our way. As I walked through the snow, all the memories from the Giver I learned came up in my mind growing in a cycle and I felt balmy. The colors, food I liked, the sleigh all I learned, all the memories warmth myself even in the snow. Yes, I felt warm, but as the memory grew, I felt more exhausted. I shouted for help without any power and collapsed in the snow wondering if somebody would…

What effect do Christmas tablecloths have on Christmas table decoration? The tablecloth is a real classic when it comes to table decoration Christmas and during the remaining time of the year it is mainly brought to festivities. Exciting to know is where the tablecloth actually comes from, because if you think about the Christmas table decorations with beautiful blankets, it is always an advantage to know the story. Already in antiquity small tables were provided with mouth cloths, which were…

putting up their christmas lights. We should take a moment to pay tribute to the poor forgotten holiday that is caught between these two events; thanksgiving. Good, now let's focus on the presents, oops I mean the present. It really is the most wonderful time of the year. Spirits are lifted and everyone seems to be in a better mood. The days have gotten a bit colder and the hats and mittens are out. Christmas music is on the radio and ABC family has started their 25 days of Christmas. It’s the…
