[pro libertate]

My favorite Christmas traditions include Christmas Eve service with my mother, It's a Wonderful Life, breakfast in bed for my wonderful wife, sticking as many bows as I can on the family beagle (before she/he goes nuts), and a terrific meal (something different each year-Cioppino, Bouillebaisse, rack of lamb) with several bottles of great wine.

Sounds absolutely perfect.
