My favorite holiday is Christmas.  Our family has a lot of traditions during the year but Christmas has always been special to me.  Years ago I started a tradition with my daughter who now has her own kids and each December we make Christmas cookies together. My favorite food at the Christmas meal is ham and homemade dressing. Cherish your family every chance you get because tomorrow is not promised.  Merry Christmas everyone. 

My favorite holiday food is a pretty basic item, but it has alot of fond memories for me. Homemade dinner rolls at Thanksgiving. My grandmother used to make them from scratch and they would just melt in your mouth. 

When it comes to food, I think my favorite holiday is Thanksgiving! 🦃  I love turkey!  🦃  Dark meat, white meat, drumsticks, and leftovers!  After the big day enjoying the perfectly browned and succulent turkey (with all its amazing nooks and crannies), we then use the leftovers to make Turkey Tetrazzini (delicious), turkey soup, and turkey sandwiches all of which I love! 

How did you celebrate this past November?! 🕯

I need to see pictures of the velvet cut out cookie 😍

My favorite holiday is by far Christmas time! Perhaps it’s because it’s the holiday that can be celebrated the longest (we like to follow Disney’s lead and celebrate immediately after Halloween!). It’s a great time of year to be with friends and family and I love that everyone is a lot more giving and selfless. My favorite food (snack) for the holidays is Peppermint Bark. Williams Sonoma makes a really good kind and recently came out with a s’mores version that I can’t wait to try. The peppermint and chocolate combo tastes and smells like Christmas to me!

My favorite festival is Diwali (Deepawali). It's not just festival but it's a emotion for me. There are multiple recipes which a love to cook and eat but specially for holiday festival my favorite holiday food is Chhole Bhature (Chickpea Curry with Fried Flatbreads). 🥰😍😍🥰

Foodwise, I’d say my favourite special occasion is not a real holiday but rather the annual spring “Cabane à sucre” (sugar shack) family gathering where we have (among many other things) maple taffy poured on snow.

Hello and good morning from a snowy Sweden!

In Sweden we more or less do a repeat of the holiday foods over Christmas, Easter and Midsummer (don’t trust the movie, it’s not like that….. ...or…?)

So Christmas food in general would be things like pickled herring in different flavors, baked ham, egg, boiled potatoes, sausages, beet root salad, “Janssons temptation” (a potato gratin with anchovies), mustard, smoked salmon, brussel sprouts, SNAPS and OF COURSE meatballs!!!!

The main thing that is exclusive (to my family at least) is the baked ham. That is only eaten during Christmas. During Easter and Midsummer there is a lot more focus on eggs and the pickled herring. 

All the best

My favorite is Christmas week. Starting with Christmas celebration with office friends then my son’s birthday planning and party in the same week and after that new year blast.

Lot of shopping, parties and variety of food. A week full of fun.😎

My favorite holiday food is Frog Eye Salad (don’t worry, the “frog eyes” are just acini de pepe pasta). The pasta’s suspended in a lemon juice custard, combined with crushed and chunk pineapple, mandarin oranges, fresh whipped cream, marshmallows, and shredded coconut.

It shows up on my Thanksgiving plate - as a side? as a dessert? Who cares?! Then I usually have some more for dessert. Then I eat it for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks in-between until I’ve consumed the entire confection.

In the house I grew up in, my siblings and I all loved it, so it lasted no more than 2 days. In a freakish (and lucky!) turn of events, my wife and 5 kids don’t care for the stuff. So once Thanksgiving with the larger family is done (for whom I make 1 LARGE mixing bowl), I get the leftovers all to myself. It lasts 4 days at most. :) I honestly wish my own family enjoyed it, but I’m not complaining over their silly refusal of such a delicious dish.

To pick a favorite is tough but I’d have to say I’m with team Pumpkin Pie! It’s been a part of my family holidays since I can remember. Hope everyone enjoys a special holiday moment this year.
