    Holly Bough 2024: The foods of Christmas Eve in Cork With Folklorist Shane Lehane

    The giddy excitement of Christmas Eve was matched and accentuated by the long list of jobs that had to be done.  The turkey or goose had to be cleaned out, the good ware, glasses and cutlery had to be washed, the presents had to be wrapped, the baby Jesus had to be located to be put in the crib and importantly the youngest in the house had to light the Christmas candle.  There was a hubbub of never-ending chores, of manic tidying and preparing, while simultaneously entertaining visiting aunts and uncles and neighbours who dropped in.  Hosted on Acast.
