Merry Christmas from our Family to yours from Wolfgang Candy Company!
Every family has its own set of holiday traditions and the Wolfgang Candy Company family is no different. We thought we would share some of our employee�s holiday traditions and would love to hear yours. Please tell us about your family traditon on our facebook page.
Amy and Lauren � Christmas morning they run out to their porch and wave to Santa as he passes by on his fire truck.
Bridget � Bakes sand tarts, her nephew�s grandmother�s recipe, with her family. It is hard keeping the kids from eating the delicious dough. Afterwards they decorate her Christmas tree together.
Sherry � Has a family Christmas party. Her husband dresses as Santa Clause and hands out presents to the kids. One year the kids were afraid of Santa so he dressed up as Alf (remember when Alf was popular?)
Nichole � Her family has a giant stocking that everyone fills with little wrapped presents. Someone then dresses as Santa and hands out all the present. Her Grandmother also has a pickle that is hidden in the Christmas tree. The person who is able to find the pickle in the tree gets a special present.
Mike � Makes wonderful food every Christmas Eve. This consists of scallops in wine and cheese sauce and delicious southern pecan pie.
Karen � When her son was young he always got so many presents that on Christmas Day he could not enjoy them. Karen started a tradition of putting the ones that could fit into a stocking. He then was allowed to open one a day until Christmas thus allowing him to enjoy each one. He is now 25 and still carries on the tradition with his wife and soon to be baby.
Frank � Bakes a special pie every year. It is a ricotta cheese pie filled with salami and pepperoni and all sorts of goodness. Sounds yummy!
Rob � Mixes up nuts, cereal and glitter and calls it reindeer food. He and his family sprinkle it on the back lawn for Santa�s reindeer. The glitter is so the reindeer can find it. This is a tradition his kids started in pre-school and continue today.
Debbie � Makes sugar cookie aka sugar cakes. Her family looks forward to them every year.
Ivy � Takes her chocolate lab every year to the mall to have her picture taken with Santa Clause.
