Here come the holidays!
December’s here. People are putting up decorations and getting that Christmas shopping list started (or maybe even done?), the people during the Regency Era had their own holiday traditions.
Their holiday dates start a week before Advent until 12 of January. That’s a long holiday season! There would be parties, balls, dinner parties, visits, skating and more holiday activities. And maybe even a wedding!
The season officially starts with the Sunday before the beginning of Advent or the fourth Sunday before Christmas. The family would come together to make Christmas puddings to serve during dinnertime.
How about you? Do you have any traditions that you do to signal that start of your holiday season?
