Hi guys It’s me again, and in this post I will be telling you what is christmas for me and what happend on my christmas day. I hope you enjoy!
For me, family is the meaning of Christmas. Wherever we may be throughout the year, we all make it a point to be together on Christmas time. the anticipation, of preparation and the joy that would take place. every single one of our family members preparing their own unique special dishes and dad would post a competition for the most delicious food prepared, well of course he will be the judge. I was so excited to make my special dish (burger steak), which happened to be a failure, hahaha, failure you might ask? Well as simple as it may seem, unfortunately I forgot to add the remaining egg, which acts as a binder. I noticed my burger streak was falling apart as I was cooking them. failure it may seem but the taste was spot on! but unfortunately I lost. well nobody can compete to grandma’s cooking, when it comes to cooking she’s the boss.
well i have nothing to complaint on because in the first place she was the one who eagerly persisted me to join the competition also gave the me the money to buy the ingredients i need. i was so excited that my relatives would spend their Christmas on our home, i love it when our relatives or even visitors would come and visit. because i get this feeling of joy and excitement every time. as the wait continues i feel like every second feels like a minute waiting for “Noche Buena”. but that anticipation disappeared as my relatives arrived. accommodating them distracted me for a while.
All of our relatives from my mother’s side gathered in one seating. sharing smiles for each other and having a ball. my cousins would share their talents and all of us would see or listen to what talent they may offer. some sang and some danced and after that they would receive a small reward from my mother. as we where gathering and enjoying ourselves together with my family and relatives exchanging gifts, then I realized something very important, it’s this kind of moments that makes up what truly is the essence of Christmas. each passing moment are well spent especially to those who you care the most. Christmas for me is the day where I can truly understand and appreciate what the true meaning of family is all about.
