We do lots of Lebanese and Greek dishes as well as American traditional Turkey. Only recently has my mom been doing stuffing and cranberries but never when we
were growing up.

American. I go to church on Christmas eve with the family and don't even pretend to pay attention anymore. Then we come home and open presents. Eating is
somewhere in the mix.

I have to go to church, too, though I am considering putting my foot down this year.

Christmas Eve Service at the United Methodist Church - then usually post for a while. Christmas Eve traditionally has been a night of mischief and cyber mayhem
here at OT.
Christmas Day ... presents ... then dinner with the parents, my siblings, nieces, nephews, and assorted other folks. We eat the pretty traditional Christmas food with my sister sometimes bringing a Greek Dish or two. |

My family's been in this country since before the Revolutionary War - American through and through
no church lunch mid-day on Christmas day tamales on christmas eve (new tradition just for the two of us) solved present dilemna = open them at midnight (his family was family presents one the eve and santa on the day - mine was everything on the day) and that was back when we did presents |

I think that if I don't at least show that I'm trying to play along in some way, then one day my parents will have someone perform an exorcism on me.
Actually, that might be kind of funny. |

I DON'T WANT TO DISCUSS WHEN YOU OPEN PRESENTS. I WANT TO DISCUSS WHAT FUCKING COUNTRY YOUR GRANDPARENTS ARE FROM AND WHAT CULTURAL TRADITIONS YOU HAVE!
