Christmas time is always a time for catching up with family. So over talks about online business degrees, wedding plans, kids, reminiscing childhood memories and travel plans, we feasted on what my mother prepared for us – a feast of Pinoy and Italian/American dishes with lots of sweet treats. My kids loved the macaroni and chicken plus the chocolates and salad. I, meanwhile, just loved everything!

Christmas is truly my most favorite season of the year!
