Which holiday traditions do you happily ignore?
I vividly remember huge home-cooked feasts for all the major holidays throughout my childhood. But now that I'm in charge, my family has a new tradition: Easter dinner is gyros; Christmas breakfast is Danish, doughnuts, and juice; Thanksgiving dinner is Chinese takeout. It saves me from preparing, cooking, and cleaning, and leaves me time to spend with family.
