Noted storyteller Amina Blackwood-Meeks says her
Christmas I'll Never Forget memory is not just a memory, but 'an experience'. And it's one she still partakes in yearly, because as with storytelling, the Christmas spirit needs to be continued through generations.
All her family members prepare their designated Christmas dishes and gather at a central location to partake in the meal while enjoying each other's company.
She said her first time experiencing it was when she was a teenager, but laughed as she recalled she was initially miserable.
"It was at a time when you did not understand the significance of the family sharing dinner like that. You just know say it was dinner time and yuh want to eat, and somebody nuh come with the dinner, but as you grow you understand the significance of family," she said.
