Food keeps traditions alive

Traditions help to explain our family stories.  They give meaning to our family culture and explain where we came from.  Those stories need to be passed on.

Knowing this Christmas season may look a lot different from Christmas past, we may be struggling to find ways to carry on some of our traditions.  Previously, I had written about simplifying our holiday festivities this year, and that may involve starting some new traditions.  

Traditions help to explain our family stories.  They give meaning to our family culture and explain where we came from.  Those stories need to be passed on.  

Our sense of smell can often bring back memories in a matter of seconds.  What better way to activate our sense of smell, and recall some of those memories and stories, than with food?
