ON CHRISTMAS EVE WE ALWAYS ATE OUR BIG MEAL BY
SUNDOWN. ON THE TABLE WE ALWAYS HAD A WAFER. ABOUT THE SIZE OF A
DINNER PLATE. FATHER WOULD BREAK THE WAFER, DIP A PIECE IN
HONEY AND GIVE EACH ONE OF US A PIECE TO EAT, BEFORE OUR MEAL
STARTED. AT THE END OF THE MEAL MOTHER WOULD GIVE EACH OF US A
CLOVE OF GARLIC DIPPED IN HONEY TO EAT. THIS WAS TO KEEP THE
SICKNESS AWAY FOR THE YEAR.
