There's no snow here in Chicago, but both Christmas Eve and Christmas day have been sunny and clear--unheard of! Yesterday I actually took a bike ride along the lakefront. That is not entirely unheard of--about five or six years ago it was about 60 degrees on Christmas Eve, and I took the opportunity to go for a ride back then too. It was definitely colder this time, but not painfully so. I wasn't the only person getting a ride in yesterday!
Nothing about my family's holiday traditions is particularly European, except for possibly the focus on home, hearth, and family--which of course are valued among humans everywhere. Whether you celebrate Christmas or are just enjoying a day off, I hope you have the comfort of people you love around you.
