HOW MUCH FUN. Except for six hours of presents. I think I would be one of the ones who didn't think waiting to watch someone open gum was too funny. Why does New Jersey get such a bad rap?

I have my own menorah! Does that help? I bought it in the hopes that someday someone would take pity on my and think I was Jewish and invite me over for seder where I could have tons of fabulous yummy foods. That day has not happened yet, and thus this relic from a religion not my own has not served me at all! I would like to inject a little Jew into my family's Christmas, which I'm sorry to say, I am not really looking forward to that much. Well, Step 1 is "Daniel (my bro) bugs everyone that it's time to start opening presents at like 3 pm, even though he's 20 years old." Step 2 is snack supper, featuring GINGER ALE PUNCH, so at least that part's good. Step 3 is that my grandpa sits in his chair and plays Santa, and his elves (the youngest kids who can walk) have to go pass out the presents as he calls out the names on the tags. Then everyone (all 38 of us) open their presents in a giant wrapping-paper frenzy and then we have a bonfire and pass around a bottle of Grey Goose and toast the baby Jesus. And then in the morning everyone opens stockings/presents from Santa and we eat garlic cheese grits. Wait, what am I saying? I am TOTALLY looking forward to A Mississippi Christmas. (Except when we celebrate at home, the garlic cheese grits are accompanied by mimosas! And that's better.) Erica, I really really REALLY want to celebrate Jewmas. I have my own menorah!

I really think he's what my holiday has been missing. And, a note on the deodorant= Nobody understands the value of personal hygiene quite like the Jews. Ever since that 40 year in the desert stint, we've been extra-sensitive to our glandular excretions. Nobody likes a smelly Jew. If you can't tell, I absolutely loved your post, Erica! And Sarah- I am encouraged by the amount of Jew-ish readers of your blog. A merry Jewmas to you all! Can I rent your ever-so festive father for my very own Jewmas, please?

I also enjoy all of us Christian/Jew kids' names for the holiday. We always called it "The Day About Jesus Where Grandma Comes Over Anyway", but that's not as catchy as Jewmas.

I would love to one day be a visitor to the Greenhouse Family Holiday, although there may be some two-Merediths-induced confusion. Excellent post--I've been in the most Christmassy mood for weeks now (especially after watching the insanely wonderful and amazing A Christmas Carol production at the Alley Theater last night. My boyfriend surprised me, yay!), so a post based on any other subject would not have sufficed. SQUEEE, what a fantastic tradition-filled family you have!
