Ukranians decorate their trees with an artificial spider and
matching web.

My boyfriend is Jewish and doesn't want to celebrate Christmas. I was raised celebrating Christmas, but I have no problem NOT celebrating it. The thing I want to do is to come up with our own traditions to start that are unique to us but don't have to do with Christmas/Hannukah.

Looking back, it seems that so much of my life within my family revolves around music - singing in the church choir, listening to my mother play hymns, or enjoying the Christmas Cantata each year. My family is all about music and I think that some of that stems from my church. Music, to me, has always been an integral part of church and religion, whether it's the congregation singing or my sister upfront doing a solo in her barefeet.

Enjoy iced tea with some infusions or traditional favorites
Published: Wednesday, June 18, 2008
From the Press of Atlantic City: http://www.pressofatlanticcity.com/113/story/185492.html
June is National Iced Tea Month, and the Tea Council of the USA wants us to drink up its many benefits. Tea has zero calories and contains a multitude of substances that help the body maintain healthy cells and tissues and contribute to heart health.
The best way to get a really good glass of sweet tea or lemonade is to brew tea bags and squeeze lemons.

Once upon a time, Joe Lieberman was interesting—not always correct, in my view, but interesting. He was interesting because he thought for himself. On most issues, most senators line up pretty automatically with their party.

Tandoori turkey in the oven
For a few years now I've wanted to try to marry the traditional Southern Indian food my husband grew up enjoying with Thanksgiving as I know it (Southern girl with a love of spice and heat).
So this year I did a trial run of a tandoori-style turkey made in the oven. By next year I hope to build my own tandoor, or at least grill this guy, because it needs a little more heat to crisp up properly.
