Heritage Holidays: Weaving Stories Through the Generations

 We invite you to journey through our family’s Christmas traditions, from sweet cookie-baking days to the heartfelt evening meal. These recipes aren’t just food for the body, but also connect cultural historical traditions, and are filled with memories that bind us In spirit across generations. Travel with us connecting Eastern European foods with a few American adaptations and some fun activities you might want to include for your family. The Bohemian Horn Cookies, Spritz Cookies, Candy Cane Cookies, and The Bethlehem Cake are typically baked each year as part of family celebrations and/or shipped to extended family around the country.  The Christmas meals typically involve sharing the Christmas Wafer/Oplatek ceremony, with Spiraled Glazed Ham with Pierogi, with Kale, Kugeli and of course the Cookies and Bethlehem cake for dessert.
