My dad would invite his sister over Christmas morning and he would just cook breakfast and she would come over after church and that's really how it all began.

One tradition is that my dad makes breakfast Christmas morning and his sister my Aunt Joyce she brings over her homemade cinnamon twists they are the best.  This has been going on for about 10 years, since I was little so it is hard to know exactly how long this has been going on.

The value in eating foods from our heritage is that it makes us feel like our ancestors are still with us today.
