I have two favorite traditional holidays: Hallowe’en, and Christmas. Christmas to me means spending time with family and friends, eating good food, and focusing on the fun and religious aspects of the holiday.

In years long past, my family would make the trek to the Salt Lake Dickens Festival at the Utah State Fairgrounds. We would pay our admission, and enter into Victorian England. The vendors were all in period costumes, street players would be out and about, and you may even run …
