| Christmas is a winter festival for northern latitudes. A festival of
| light.  It's solstice. The winter's just kicking in, but the days
| *are* going to get longer.

technically, they started getting longer three days before christmas ;)

| Winter can be dismal.  You need a party,
| you need something to celebrate... and food.  Rich spicy salty sweet
| delicious food.  Because food is good and it keeps you warm.  And
| spirits.  And magic... the magic part is for the children, especially.

and the quality time with family .... oh wait, you guys do that on thanks
giving.
