New in paperback This captivating book of recollections celebrates the holiday traditions of Appalachian families as passed from one generation to the next. Based on Foxfire students' interviews with neighbors and family members, the memories shared here are from a simpler time, when gifts were fewer but perhaps more precious, and holiday tables were laden with traditional favorites. More than just reminiscences, however, A Foxfire Christmas includes instructions for recreating many of the ornaments, toys, and recipes that make up so many family traditions, from Chicken and Dumplings to Black Walnut Cake, and from candy pulls to corn husk dolls and hand-whittled toy cars.… (lisätietoja)
A Foxfire Christmas: Appalachian Memories and Traditions by Eliot Wigginton Amazing stories from the 1900's of people who lived near woods and farmed like Appalachains. There were no toys to buy or decorations so they made their own. Love stories of the serenading, caroling as we know it by. So fun and smallest items created were the best. They tell you how to make poppers, firecrackers and garland from paper and using foil for a star. Love sand candles and how they are made as I've watched my mom make them in the 70's. Holly adds just that perfect touch as you go outside to collect a branch or two. Love harmless pranks played also. Storytellers are given credit with their name being stated. I received this book from National Library Service for my BARD (Braille Audio Reading Device). ( )
