Typical dishes brazillian use for supper. On Christmas holiday we use to exaggerate the use of raisings. We gather raisings with everything we can, for example it is really typical for we to eat rice with raisings. We eat a lot of chicken as well. In Brazil, the Christmas is not the time of the year in wich people use to decorate their houses quite a lot. Although we don't decorate things a lot, I remembered there is an exception: The South region. In the south region, Christmas is the time of the year where people exaggerate as much as they can with Christmas decoration, they also have a big opera concert with fireworks called: Natal Luz (Christmas of light); wich I talked about in an entry that I had made before this one ("Gramado"). In Brazil, we use to build the supper little by little. In case you didn't understand, I'll explain you: we use to call the family, and everyone brings one dish, so the host doesn't prepare all the dishes that are going to be eaten. Typically, we prepare French toast, baked turkey, fried fish, rice with raisings, sandwich of ham and cheese, Pork, corn cake (a really typical dish here) and pavê (A dessert that looks like a trifle, it is not a trifle though) for dessert. We use to eat the supper at 00:00. I don't know if the tradition of eating the supper at midnight is conserved in all the countries. Although it does not snow on christmas in Brazil, 'cause the christmas is in december, so it is summer time here, we use soap bubbles to create a "false snow". Although the Christmas were in june (wich is the month of the winter here) it wouldn't snow, 'cause the only region in Brazil that snows is the South Region. After Christmas eve, on christmas day, we use to travel with our families. Therefore we don't wait until New year's eve to travel. On Christmas day, we have a little game that we play with the family, we exchange gifts, but the gifted people are going to be chosen randomly. That's not a tradition that only my family conserve, it is very common here in Brazil and it is called: Amigo secreto (secret Santa). Yeah, that's it. I hope you have liked my text, and merry christmas for everyone.★
