I based this one off something that I used to do with my reenactment group every year during this time. We would do one last reenactment around mid-December. Since it was close to Christmas we would prepare nice meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Normally we have really bland and dull meals throughout the reenactment to keep in period-style and the such.
But we bend the rules so we can have pancakes on an open fire, a very nice cream of whatever soup for lunch, and dinner is a full course meal like mashed potatoes, corn, turkey ect. I always looked forward to that time, but since this pandemic hit reenactments are a thing of the past and we haven't done this in 3 years.
But I hope one day we can get back to doing this small tradition. We also exchange really cheap gifts, like no more than $5 and we handpick someone's name from a basket the previous event so we just buy for one. It's usually something like food, a nice ornament or whatever. I always liked getting food though.
