Christmas, not because of Jesus

I bought a live (ok, slowly dying) Christmas tree this year for the first time and I will be giving my immediate family and a few select others Christmas presents and today I’m baking at least one batch of Christmas cookies.  This year I decided that I really do enjoy the secular parts of the holiday – which is basically everything except a midnight church service and the creche – and I really can celebrate it without being a Christian.

    What’s not to like about cookies, pies, decorating trees (and houses), and present!?

    I LOVE Christmas – and I’m also baking a pumpkin pie and making more pretzels today.
