Do you have a Christmas meal (breakfast, lunch, dinner) with your friends and family? If so, how was your experience this year? (lemmy.world)

These are the first holidays since dad brought his girlfriend home (he’s 47, she’s 24). My brother and I live with him. At this year’s Christmas meal besides the usual guests, mom and girlfriend’s parents were also present. Definitely an unusual situation but it was a nice event cause everybody was levelheaded.

Our tradition is to have Norwegian rice porridge for lunch on Christmas Eve. We add an almond to one bowl and the person who gets it opens the first gift.

I love that! My wife got the recipe from my mother but didn't have time to make it for our christmas meal. Maybe we'll do it later.
