Search for Holiday dinner and read a wonderous story of An Unforgettable Christmas Dinner., By: Petrie, Phil, Essence, 00140880, Dec2002, Vol. 33, Issue 8. It brought tears to my eyes.
Or search for Thanksgiving dinner and read a study on memory -
Changes in the Subjective Properties of Autobiographical Memories with the Passage of Time. Authors: Dewinstanley, William J. Friedman Patricia A. Source: Memory; Jul98, Vol. 6 Issue 4, p367-381, 15p
In any event, create memories for you and yours this holiday season.
