Here are some fun and creative ways to update Thanksgiving traditions!

The Money JarStart this new tradition on Thanksgiving by putting all extra change into a jar until Christmas Eve. On

Christmas Eve take the full jar of money, pick a random house, and leave it on the doorstep. Ring the doorbell and run so they have no idea who has left them the

extra money. This is sure to bring joy to anyone’s Christmas!

Separate the dough into three strands and bring the ends together. This is where the fun begins. Braid the three strands of dough together until there is no extra dough

left. Cover this and let it sit for thirty minutes. Preheat the oven to 375F and lightly cover the braided bread with egg

yolk. After this, bake the bread for 30-45 minutes.
