I hadn't heard of buttermilk pie until last Christmas. An orger (I wish I could recall who ) shared a recipe with me, and my daughter and I have been making them all year!

Tamales...I only ever eat them at Christmas time...

My 80 year old aunt and I, get up at 5am Christmas Eve morning and make a 100 of these. It is our tradition.

GUMBO!...ohhhh gawd. My Auntie makes the BESTESESTESTEST gumbo EVAH! I hardly ever got it cuz I wasn't in the south often for the holidays. But I am nooooow!

That and my own Homemade mac and cheese. I'm lazy, so I don't make it often, but I love it and I always make it for the holidays. This year I'm also looking forward to my second deep fried turkey. I've only had one and it was the chefs first time and it came out too salty...we'll see what happens this year.
