Nut cracking and rainbow.

When I was a little girl Christmas Time was the best time in the year. I have so many THE BEST memories that I could write a book. It was calm, family time when we were enjoying doing just nothing and spending time with our family. How clear are my memories of cooking till late night with my mom, how intense are my memories of Christmas smells, how bright and cold was snow each day of our holiday.I try to make them alive again, I do it for my kids because having memories like I have is the best thing I kept from my childhood.
One of fun things we were doing was nut cracking. While my grandma was cooking in the kitchen me and my brother would stay with her and around big table for hours we talked, and we were nut cracking !
When I saw yesterday all kinds of nuts in Henry's I was blast ! Not mentioning we had 2 kinds of nuts when I was a girl and now I could made this time even better by getting so many different kinds of them. Made my kids sit around table and try each of them, talk and have fun for hours. I know they will always remember nuts as our small Christmas tradition...
