Keelan CookWith young kids, my wife and I want to establish some good family #Christmas traditions.
What are your favorite traditions for Christmas and #Advent?
(boosts appreciated, of course)

@keelan My kids, two of whom are now adults, always enjoy watching a movie, eating roast chestnuts and stretching their stockings (my wife's knee socks) so that Santa can fit as much in as possible. They'll find various ways of yanking them, attaching them to things, coming up with silly little games. Anything to do with sock stretching.
@keelan oh, chestnuts is a ritual itself. You have to stick them all with a fork quite firmly to make sure they don't explode in the oven, and then peel each one after roasting. They're easier to peel when they're warm, at the expense of burny fingers.
The sock stretching had been doing on for the best part of 20 years, and they still do it despite now knowing it won't affect the number of gifts they get.
Glad you like our software! 
@s You've now got me contemplating chestnuts for the holiday this year.
And the sock stretching is hilarious.
