Many years ago I realized that quite a few people we know are alone on Christmas Eve so I started doing an open house. I buy tamales and have rice and beans and our house is packed. Everyone eats, drinks, and has a great time.

What a great idea. I might look into doing something similar next year.

It’s fun. I never know who is going to stop by. I buy homemade tamales, make a huge pot of beans, and a big pan of Mexican rice. Everyone brings something even though they don’t have to. I’ve received homemade jams and canned items. I have wine out the wazoo. Lol
This is the first time in 15 years that I had to cancel and wow do I miss it. I was just too sick.
