One hundred sixty-two cups. That is a lot of cups. And when it’s your tradition to spend a day making 162 cups of something special (let’s say, Chex Mix) to share with others, it can be downright exhausting.
My mom, Pat, with 162 cups to share. And Deanna, my sister, working hard behind the scenes to make it all happen.
Lucky for me, I get to be on the receiving end of this love and generosity. My mom and sister carry on this Christmas tradition for us, and everyone in our family eagerly awaits being handed a bag of special-recipe Chex Mix – with our name written on it.
Whether it’s Chex Mix, cookies, candies, popcorn – or in these parts, lefse – the holidays are a time when the dedicated few come together to carry on fun and meaningful traditions.
Frankly, those of us on the receiving end don’t always realize (or appreciate) all the time, planning and expense that goes into it all. But the dedicated few know there’s something pretty wonderful about coming together – and making something special to share with others.
So if you’re someone who keeps a family tradition going (on top of all your other holiday to-dos) a big thank you and a “cheers!” to you.
You truly are a Giver ❤
All the best this holiday season,
Karen
