...what was your favorite part about Christmas?
My favorite part was going to my grandmother's and eating dinner off the good china. She only used it on special occasions, so it was a big deal when I was finally old enough to set the table with her good dishes. That coincided with me graduating to the adult table and leaving my cousins to their baby table.
And Gran's silver! She kept it in a case and it had to be polished periodically. Nobody does that anymore.
