San Diego Reader 2014 Holiday Guide
Gift wrap class, Christmas cooking, Las Posadas, Christkindlmarkt food, SantaCon, NYE Chinese food
You don’t have to be a movie critic to know the cinematic cliché: you don’t get to choose your relatives, but you do have to spend the holidays with them. And hey-ho whaddya know: every year, the same carnival of contention, the same personality potholes, the same disastrous dinnertime debate. But here’s the upside to that repetition: you can plan for it. You can anticipate. You can prepare your countermeasures. Do something together; sitting in the same room with your various digital devices doesn’t count. Maybe start by getting out of the house. Go shopping with Grandma to some little boutique (or thrift store) that works for both of you. Take that problem nephew somewhere he can work off his excess energy. Find something free (Christmas lights!) or maybe splurge on something memorable. A little forethought, a little help from this list, and maybe, just maybe, the holidays could really be happy for you and yours. — Matthew Lickona
