My favorite holiday tradition is enjoying my mother’s latkes (potato pancakes) for Hanukkah. They were my grandmother’s recipe and they take a lot of effort to make them just right. So when it’s time to make latkes, my mother makes a nice big batch, so the family can enjoy eating them for a few days.

My favorite holiday tradition is our family’s gathering on Christmas Eve. To our family, Christmas Eve is the most important holiday of the year. We celebrate it by getting together with our extended family, cooking a traditional Cuban meal, dancing and playing dominos until well into the night. No relative is too young or too old to come to the party.

Our family has a tradition of hiding one gift for each person somewhere in my parents’ house. A nametag for each person is placed on the Christmas tree. Attached to the nametag is a string which leads to the gift. The strings go around furniture, through various rooms, etc., before ending at the gift. Inevitably, each string becomes interwoven with others and creates a real challenge to find your gift. It’s a race to find your present first.

My favorite holiday tradition is decorating the tree. After my family and I pick out a tree, we decorate it with all of the ornaments my siblings and I made in art class when we were little. My favorite ornament is a small bear I made out of clay holding my second-grade school picture.

For the holidays, I enjoy family dinner at my grandmother’s house in Miami. I’m the oldest of over 18 grandchildren, so it’s such an amazing experience when a large majority of the grandchildren meet up under one roof, catch up over delicious family recipes and reminisce about the ‘good old days’ while eating sweet desserts.
