Tradition

As most of you know, we don't celebrate Christmas. What is there for us to do during Christmas you might ask? Eat Chinese food and go to the movies. Sounds very stereotypical but, it is actually comically true. My sister and hubby happen to be in town these past few days and leave tomorrow. They came in town so that my sister could go with Miss Sunshine and me to Miss Sunshine's second opinion doctor appointment. The doctor pretty much said the same exact thing.

Anyway, so tonight, we are doing half the tradition, going out for Chinese food. One of my favorite Chinese restaurants too that we wouldn't get to go to on Christmas Day since they are normally closed Christmas day but, since we are going today, they are open. Being that we live near Philadelphia, we have a Chinatown here. Not as nice or large as NYC but still ours and a touch of China. I have been going to this restaurant since I am able to eat solid foods so you can definitely say it is a favorite.

The Princess is going to and she is very excited. She got all dressed up for the occasion.

She and I will do the other half of the tradition on Christmas Day. Perhaps Enchanted or Golden Compass.

sounds like a great tradition! i find it rather disappointing that many people who do celebrate christmas also include going out to a movie on christmas... maybe i'm just too traditional, but the part that i like best is spending time with family and friends, and you can't do that in a movie theatre.
i hope that you have a great meal and enjoy whatever you go to see. : )
