I kēlā me kēia makahiki hou. Ke kokoke mai nei nā lā Kalikimaka. Hoʻonani ʻia nā hale a me nā keʻena, kālua ʻia nā kuki a kūʻai ʻia nā makana no ka Kalikimaka.
ʻAʻole mau ka "manawa leo" o ka makahiki noʻonoʻo a noho mālie. ʻO ka hapa nui o ka manawa ke kū'ē ka hihia. Ua paʻakikī ka poʻe a hoʻoikaika i ko lākou ala ma waena o ka lehulehu ma nā hale kūʻai a ma nā mākeke Kalikimaka.
No kā mākou ʻīlio hoʻi, ʻo nā pule hope loa o ka makahiki he mea maʻamau wale nō ka noʻonoʻo. ʻAʻole pono e hoʻohaʻahaʻa ʻia nā loli koke, ke kaumaha, ka walaʻau, a me nā pōʻino i kēia manawa. Hiki iā ʻoe kōkua i kāu mea aloha e hana He manawa maikaʻi hoʻi ka Kalikimaka nona.
E noho mālie ma ka mākeke Kalikimaka
ʻO kā mākou ʻīlio he mau mea maʻamau i loaʻa ka manaʻo nui i ka wā e loli ai ko mākou ʻano.
Inā hectic mākou i ka wā ma mua o ka Kalikimaka, e loli pū kā mākou ʻīlio. Kekahi holoholona hookaawale ia, lilo kekahi poʻe e like me nā haku a me nā haku wahine.
Hoʻopau nā lā i ke kūʻai ʻana i nā makana, nā pāʻina Kalikimaka, a me nā kipa ʻana i ka mākeke Kalikimaka. ʻOiai inā maʻa nā hoa wāwae ʻehā i ka hahai ʻana i kā lākou kanaka ma nā wahi āpau, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o kekahi manawa e haʻalele i kāu ʻīlio ma ka home.
ʻAʻole ʻoluʻolu nā ʻīlio he nui i ka lehulehu, ma waena o nā wāwae lehulehu. Eia kekahi, ʻaʻole palekana loa kēia kūlana.
ʻO ke kuʻi wela, nā ʻāpana aniani ma ka papahele, a ʻoiaʻiʻo hoʻi, ʻaʻole i lilo nā mākeke Kalikimaka i mau ʻāpana aloha ʻīlio.
Gingerbread a me nā mea hoʻoweliweli ʻē aʻe
He kuʻuna kaulana ka kuke ʻana i ka Kalikimaka i nā ʻohana he nui a ʻo ka poʻe e kuke a kuke i nā wahi āpau. ʻO ka makani makani, ka palaoa a i ʻole ka pōlele kokoleka ʻaʻole i kūpono i nā maʻi no ko makou mau hoa wawae eha.
Pono e hoʻonui i ka akahele, ʻoi aku me ka mea ʻono i loko o ke kokoleka. ʻOiai he kakaikahi loa ka make kokoleka, ʻaʻole pono nā ʻīlio liʻiliʻi e ʻai i ke kokoleka.
ʻO ka pahu metala kahi e hoʻokomo pinepine ʻia ai nā mea hoʻonaninani lāʻau hiki ke pilikia. Inā ʻai ka ʻīlio i ka foil, hiki iā ia ke alakaʻi i nā pilikia ʻeha nui. I ka hihia ʻino loa, pono paha e wehe ʻia ke kiʻiʻoniʻoni.
ʻO nā koena o ka papa Kalikimaka hiki ke pilikia. ʻO ka iwi o ka kusi Kalikimaka pilikia loa nā ʻīlio. Hiki i nā iwi moa ke māmala a hōʻeha i ka waha a i ʻole ka ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi, ka ʻāpana digestive.
Nā ʻīlio a me nā pahu Kalikimaka
ʻO kekahi kuʻuna kaulana ʻo ia ke kumulāʻau Kalikimaka nani.
Hiki ke loaʻa ma ka hapa nui o nā hale, akā ua loli nā mea nani ma luna o ka manawa. I kekahi manawa, ua kau ʻia nā mea kūlohelohe e like me nā hōkū mauʻu ma luna o ka lāʻau, akā i kēia lā nā pōpō waihoʻoluʻu a me nā kiʻi i hana ʻia me ke aniani maikaʻi.
Inā noho ka ʻīlio i loko o ka hale, pono i ka mea nāna ka ʻīlio e mālama i kekahi mau mea i ka naʻau. He mea pāʻani kaulana nā pōpō aniani, no nā ʻīlio ʻōpio. Loaʻa iā lākou i loko o ka plastic i nā kala āpau.
Hoʻohana wau i kēia mau pōpō, ʻaʻole hiki ke hoʻokaʻawale ʻia mai nā aniani, no ka ʻaoʻao haʻahaʻa o ka lāʻau. No laila, inā e lawe ʻia ka pōleʻa mai ka lāʻau ma ka wili ʻana a i ʻole ka wili ʻana i ka huelo, ʻaʻohe mea e hiki.
Eia nō naʻe, inā hāʻule nā pōpō aniani i ka honua, ua haki lākou a lilo i mau ʻāpana lahilahi i hiki ke hōʻeha i ka ʻīlio.
ihoiho pono e pale 'ia ma na wahi haahaa. Hoʻohauʻoli mau ke kukui uila no nā holoholona. ʻAʻole wale ma muli o nā holoholona, akā pono nā kukui maoli e ʻā wale ma lalo o ka nānā ʻana.
ʻuhane ua hele i waho o ke ʻano i nā makahiki i hala iho nei, akā hoʻohana mau ia i kēlā me kēia manawa. E like me nā mea wili metala, hiki i kēia mau mea hoʻonani ke hoʻoulu i nā pilikia koʻikoʻi a me nā hōʻeha inā ʻai nā ʻīlio iā lākou.
Eia kekahi, e hōʻoia mea kanu like poinsettia, holly, a i ʻole mistletoe ʻaʻole hiki i kāu ʻīlio. He mea ʻawaʻawa lākou e like me ka hau hau no nā kiʻi pukaaniani. ʻAʻohe hewa o kahi ʻO ka tangerine i kekahi manawa aiʻole kāu kalena hiki mai.
He mea kaumaha ka Kalikimaka no nā ʻīlio
E nānā pono i kāu pipi i ka wā e hiki mai ana i ka Kalikimaka. E ʻike ʻoe i ka nā hōʻailona mua o ke kaumaha i ka manawa koke.
ʻAi liʻiliʻi a ʻoi aku paha ka ʻīlio ma mua o ka mea maʻamau. Hoʻomaʻamaʻa nui ʻo ia iā ia iho a haʻalele. ʻAʻole hiki iā ia ke hoʻoikaika hou ʻia me kāna mea pāʻani punahele a hōʻike ʻo ia i ka hana hoʻonui a i ʻole ka ʻakaʻaka.
No ka pale ʻana i kēia ma mua, e mālama pono ʻoe i ka hana maʻamau i kēlā me kēia lā e like me ka hiki. Hanai mau a hāʻawi ka hele wāwae i ka palekana holoholona.
E uku i kāu pipi me mea hana hale. He wikiwiki lākou e kālua, no laila hiki ke leʻaleʻa pū ka ʻīlio a me ka mea nāna i ka wā Kalikimaka.
Inā ʻoe a me kāu ʻīlio i loaʻa i ka mua Aloha Kalikimaka, Aneane e lilo ia i mea ma'amau no kou hoa wawae eha i ka makahiki e hiki mai ana.
