With Christmas just around the corner, many of us are already getting ahead with decorations, lights, gifts, and, of course, the all-important tableware.
When I first visited the U.S., I was genuinely surprised to discover that Christmas crackers aren’t really a tradition there – no paper crowns, no cheesy jokes, no tiny toys flying across the table. For those of us who can’t imagine Christmas dinner without that festive crack, it’s a non-negotiable part of the celebration.
