Russian Christmas orated by Leland Campbell
This year we celebrated Russian Christmas with Grammy's Borsch (red cabbage soup), our Strawberry Greens Salad, Beth's Clam Chowder, and Anne's Trifles, Punch, and Peppermint Pig tradition. Pop Pop read to us about celebrations in Russia and traditional food and holiday events there. Campbell children remarked about what they remember about growing up with Russian Christmas and good food and family memories were had by all.
(*Russian Christmas is celebrated on
January 7, thirteen days after Western Christmas according to the Russian Orthodox Church which uses the old Julian Calendar.)
