Chicken Soup for the Soul: Christmas in Canada

It is simply not Christmas until I’m sitting by my fireplace with a glass of wine and my favourite holiday book Chicken Soup for the Soul! This year they have a Canadian version just for us Canucks and it’s full of 101 festive holiday stories that will warm your heart and spread holiday cheer with its tales of family, fun, and traditions from across Canada. There are stories dated back to another time and another way of life, and there are stories as current as last years ice storm that left hundreds of people stranded with no heat and hydro over Christmas. All of them heart warming and special that get me a little teary eyed (okay maybe the wine doesn’t help, but they are such sweet stories!)
