My favorite choliday is Christmas. I can remember going to my Aunt Maggie's house for Chiristmas Eve and being amazed at the variety of seafood dinners she had prepared. There were always seven seafood dishes and apparently such is the case in almost every Italian family! For some reason, it is an Italian tradition to have seven fish dinners on Christmas Eve. I don't know the exact reason why or how this tradition started. There are many different explanations and interpretations. Nonetheless, I have very fond memories of celebrating the holiday with my family and look forward to continuing the tradition.
