The Food is Special at Christmas

The Food is Special at Christmas

Christmas colors are red and great

But

I prefer purple, gold, and blue.

*

The food is special and very important.

Chicken and turkey tamales

Special Sandwiches

Potato salad

Rice with vegetables

Many deserts

Many beverages

Fruit

*

Visiting the family is important

and very special.

Visiting the church also.

*

Preparations include

mobilizing together to make everything

that will be consumed

with family and friends.

*

Parents give one gift to each child.

*

In my country we say:

‘If there are no tamales

or the traditional chicken sandwich…

…it is not Christmas!’
