All right... I know, I know...
This is one of my very earliest memories!
It's very yummy... and brings back many fond memories!
Why is it that most of our traditions center around food?
Well here's another one!
This is one of my very earliest memories!We simply take an orange...
Squeeze it around in our hands for a while to get it nice and juicy inside...
Break both ends off a peppermint candy cane...
Stick one end into the now, very juicy orange...
There are very tiny holes in the candy cane, so it's kind of a straw.
It's very yummy... and brings back many fond memories!
It's definately one of those traditions I will do every winter someday with my own family!! :o)
So... Now that you've heard a few of ours...
What are some fun memories and traditions you have?

I love "peppermint oranges"! I was only introduced to it several years ago, and now I'm hooked! :)
My favorite memory/tradition is probably serving at a meal on Christmas Day, for people who don't have a lot of money or who are elderly and can't cook Christmas dinner.
Blessings!
Hi Nichole,
Thanks for visiting my blog, and for your sweet comments. I have never heard of "peppermint oranges" -- I'll definitely have to try that!
My favorite Christmas tradition is going to Mass on Christmas eve -- the church is beautifully decorated and the choir sings hymns and carols before the service begins. It's a lovely, sparkling night!
Have a wonderful Christmas!
