Boxing Day
Happy Boxing Day, everyone! And no, it's not the day you put stuff back in the box to return it. Boxing Day is actually a national holiday in Britain and Canada, stemming from the tradition of filling boxes with gifts and money for the poor.
In honor of Boxing Day, our friends invited us over for tea. It was lovely. We each had a cracker (2c) on our plates, which produced a paper crown for each of us, a little prize, and delightfully cheesy Christmas riddles. What do you get when you cross a snowman and a vampire? Frostbite. Why does Santa have three gardens? So that he can "hoe, hoe, hoe!" We donned our paper crowns, ate cucumber sandwiches and mincemeat tarts, and, of course, drank lots of tea.
