Home for the Holidays: Christmas baking traditions

Alison Platt shares this Christmas memory:

“Every December, my mom (shown here, inducting my son into our tradition) and I enjoy our cookie baking fest,” said Platt. “We schedule an entire day (and sometimes night!) devoted to the craft. The event begins with me selecting our favourite Christmas music to play throughout the day; decades in, the Muppet Christmas Carol soundtrack has finally grown on her. This tradition has been going on for nearly 20 years, but of course not this year. But to quote the Muppet Ghost of Christmas Present (aka Santa): “It’s true wherever you find love, it feels like Christmas.”

Love you Mom!
