The Merriest Christmas Websites
Christmas is a time steeped in history, tradition, and memories. The Christmas Days of my childhood passed in a whirl of wrapping paper, chocolate, new toys, books, clothes, and rich food, always capped with a sweet and sticky mince pie. Now that I’m older, I approach the holiday more thoughtfully and focus on the traditions that mean the most to my family.

If you would like to learn more about Christmas customs - like why we hang mistletoe, send cards, and decorate trees - please join me as I explore some of the best Christmas sites on the Web.
