I LOVE Christmas. Growing up, my family used to spend the week at my grandparents' farm. All my aunts and uncles would make the trip, and it was the only time of year I'd get to see all my cousins. The farm itself was in the rural northern prairies so it was like something out of a storybook with all the snow and festivities. We'd see the northern lights almost every year, and it was remote enough that we could hear them. We are a musical family so we'd sing lots of carols. I've got a fondness for the religious ones. I've always thought they had a haunting, ethereal quality to them when compared to the secular ones. The only downside was that I don't like Anglo Canadian food that much. I'd have to live off mashed potatoes and cookies until we got home and I could return to my usual diet of curry lol
