Christmas is my favorite time of the year. Do you remember being a child during the holiday season? It was magical. People were kinder, a palpable joy danced on the air throughout the town, and anything seemed possible—if you believed. As we age, that magic seems to fade. But why should magic be reserved only for children?
A few years ago, I decided to bring the magic back into my life. In order to regain the Christmas spirit, I knew I needed to remove as much holiday stress as possible. For me, the biggest stressor was preparing traditional holiday meals.
