Christmas is without a doubt my FAVORITE Holiday.
As a child I remember waiting month after month to smell the fresh “truchas” { Canary Islands’ Christmas Dessert }
 made in my mom’s kitchen and the endless parties on Christmas Eve Night.
I recall dancing all night long, singing Villancicos {Christmas Carols from Spain} while
neighbors and friends would show up unexpectedly because in our home EVERYONE was invited!
NO ONE WAS A STRANGER ON CHRISTMAS EVE!
.
Those memories of my childhood and youth have stayed with me forever and every year
I wait with anticipation to celebrate the greatest day of all and keep the traditions alive.
.
Here are some projects, ideas and favorite Christmas Things that I have found around…
Enjoy!
