Merry Christmas all GH'ers. Here's to the past year and hopes for the coming one. Thought I'd start a thread on Christmas traditions that folks do....
In my case, Mom grew up on a farm during the depression era and they didn't have a lot, but each year for Christmas her dad would make a batch of root beer, which for her was a big treat. Mom passed away some time ago, but we keep the tradition going. Each November our family brews a batch of root beer and come December we bottle it -- that's what we drink Christmas day (and we buy non-alcoholic root beer for the kids). Kind of a different tradition, but it's one we like. Rootbeer floats for Christmas Eve and root beer drinks on Christmas Day.
Here's hoping you have a great holiday, and yes, my root beer bottles are of course Maroon and Gold.
