Hometown Traditions
December 18, 2022
A few weeks ago several bloggers that I follow made a post called "Hometown Traditions" and I found it so interesting to see how other towns and villages celebrate Christmas and the holidays. I live in Los Altos in Northern California and my hometown is brimming with traditions from tree lightings to fun runs. Want to see the traditions we enjoy?
The first holiday event in our town is the annual Holiday Stroll that falls on the second Friday of November. The downtown streets and shops are decorated for Christmas and stay open late and serve bubbly spirits, appetizers and cookies, have raffles and sales and giveaways. It's super crowded and fun and we hate to miss it. I used to work in one the most beautiful shops in town, Cover Story. We would have our husbands set up a drinks table on the sidewalk in front of the store and act as bartenders. The wine was free and the guys had a blast and you can imagine that we were the most popular shop on the block! I'm sorry I don't have any pictures of that!

Wow, thank you for this, Kristen. I’ve never heard of a community in Today’s World come together with so many charming traditions. Beautiful. Cookies, scrumptious. And why do “salads and champagne” stick in my head? Chloe
