We celebrated this English holiday over breakfast.
Yesterday.
In San Diego.
Which brought up speculation about the origin of the name.
A day to wear boxers?
A day to put Christmas gifts back in the box and return to the store?
A day that has something to do with the Boxer Rebellion?
It shows up on our calendars every December 26th with (Canada) in parentheses - what other countries celebrate boxers and boxed gifts?
Didn’t matter.
We ate our sausage and bacon and eggs and tomato and toast.
We drank our tea.
And because it was a table full of Americans celebrating, there was apple pie for dessert.
