The seasonal transition between winter and spring may be our favorite. The vernal equinox occurs when the sun crosses the equator moving from the southern towards the northern hemisphere. Each day after the spring equinox, our days are filled with more light and feel seemingly longer.
Le Dejeuner de Noel
Some of my well-traveled American friends and my European friends embrace a concept that I often forget about: the Christmas lunch. It's a simpler, more casual version of a dinner party, and often has a smaller guest list than a Christmas party.

Moroccan Tea Ritual
Although the Morrocan Tea ritual is a tradition practiced to conclude meal times, it is also be practiced in isolation at various times of day. Often before or after school or the wok day or when guests come to the house. It is an act of love, and hospitality, and a reminder to take a minute to unwind, and connect with those that you appreciate.
