I love hearing about all the unique and creative holiday traditions that go on in each family. It’s so much fun to get new ideas! So with that being said, what is your favorite holiday tradition?
…AND to start this off, one of our families holiday traditions is to celebrate Noche Buena (Christmas Eve). The Cuban tradition is a family dinner centered around a lechon (pig roast). The pig is often picked out and prepared on the December 23 by all the men in the family, while all the women are busy cooking the rest of food/desserts for the following night. On December 24 the pig is cooked in a "Caja China," a large box where an entire pig is placed above hot coals. My dad makes this box bigger and bigger every year. This year he made a huge box out of bricks (I'll definitely post pictures if you girls want to see it). Overall, my family is very large and there is always an abundance of food, laughter, and celebration the night of Noche Buena.
