Christmas is an important season for Americans, as they celebrate the good year that has passed, and more importantly the bonds between family and friends, and the spirit of sharing and giving.
The I-center organized this outing, and we went to Charlene's house, which was really very lovely, set among lush greenery and decorated with all things Xmas! Each of us brought a snack to share - I baked some peanut butter cookies with chocolate chips.
I wasn't feeling too well, so did not eat anything when I was there, which is quite a shame as the spread of goodies there was simply mouth watering and appetizing!
Later, we sang Christmas songs and shared stories of how Christmas is celebrated in different countries, including Mexico and France, and also the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah.
