The Feast of 7 Fishes is an Italian-American Christmas Eve tradition in which a grand meal of 7 different fish dishes are prepared. This likely comes from the fact that Roman Catholics would not eat meat on Christmas eve and would have fish instead.

Candy canes date back to 1670 Germany. The story goes that they were shaped as shepherd hooks to remember the shepherds that visited baby Jesus, and given to children to keep them quiet at church.

I'm looking for Christmas traditions to write about and every one so far originated in Germany. Did Germans just invent Christmas? Photo is Hesse, Germany

Walk outside everyday. Even when it's frigid. Even when it's raining. Even when it's really hot and buggy. Take it all in... every change, every season. Be grateful for the experience.

Decorating yule trees with popcorn, nuts and fruit on a string is a German Christmas tradition. Sometimes the popcorn was also dyed in various colors. Popcorn was a cheap, festive treat to decorate with. Unsalted/unbuttured popcorn is also a favorite with birds!

The Gingerbread House, another Christmas tradition to come out of Germany, has been around since the early 1800s and was believed to be made popular by the Grimm fairy tale 'Hansel & Gretel'

Very similar to Elf On A Shelf, Mary on the Mantle is a tradition where parents place the Virgin Mother Mary around the house, as if she were 'watching' the household.
If you ask me, it's enough pressure knowing that God and Santa are watching 😁
