A question: what are traditions of yours that have either been created or passed down, religious, communal, family, or otherwise?

Feel free to reblog and add your answer. I’m genuinely curious in seeing how much I can learn from people. 

Reblogging to signalboost, and also to let me think if I have any traditions like the ones David’s talking about. No family traditions have survived my adolescence and leaving home, and then leaving the continent, I don’t think (Actually, maybe that’s not true; I continue to have an almost-religious respect and love for libraries, and I’m pretty sure that’s something that came from weekly visits with my folks when I was a kid).

But new traditions get created. Since being in the US, I’ve always done the orphans thanksgiving get together, and can’t imagine Kate and I just doing it alone now. Kate and I go out to dinner every December 24, as a gift to ourselves. We don’t have religious traditions, but social ones and holiday-themed ones, I guess.
