Our Favourite Christmas Eve Traditions

Lynn Jatania, Ottawa Savvy Scribe

This year, we'll be trying something new for Christmas Eve—the big turkey dinner. Since we spend the holiday season visiting relatives, we don't usually get a chance to savour homemade cranberry sauce and stuffing. Serving the classic feast on December 24 will let us enjoy the traditional Christmas dishes at home, give us plenty of leftovers to take us through Christmas Day and—fingers crossed—will send the kids off into deep dreamland with full tummies (giving us the opportunity to fill the stockings). A new tradition is born!
