The final full week of December. Christmas week. The final days of Hanukkah. Kwanzaa is near at hand AND a great lineup of food holidays!
December 22: National Date Nut Bread Day
December 23: National Pfeffernuesse Day
December 24: National Egg Nog Day
December 25: National Pumpkin Pie Day
December 26: National Candy Cane Day
December 27: National Fruit Cake Day
December 28: National Chocolate Candy Day

Did you know that 25 December is National Pumpkin Pie Day? I didn't. I've always associated pumpkin pie with Thanksgiving. In fact, one of the great debates in my family's household when I was growing up was whether to have sweet potato or pumpkin pie for dessert. My father was an advocate for pumpkin pie; my mother advocated for sweet potato. Occasionally a pumpkin sweet potato pie was baked. What did I vote for? Pecan pie.
Which holidays will you celebrate this week? Which holidays are a surprise to you? Share in the comments below. Have a great week and Happy Holidays!
Be well,
Technicolor girl
