Family Ties: Family Traditions
In my family, we've had a holiday tradition of making tamales for as long as I can remember.

And the younger generations of our family are getting in on the action, too.

Different cultures celebrate births in various ways. In China, it is common practice for elders to cook chicken and rub the tongue of the bird over the child's lips in hopes of a good talker on her first birthday. Some Indian newborns are dropped off a tower 15 meters high onto a white sheet in hopes of a healthy and strong future.
