The holiday season is one of the best times of the year for me. It is a time when all the family comes together and shares in the festive spirit of the season. The one thing I enjoy the most, is waking up to the aroma of the different foods my mother is preparing. Although I have been awaken by the smell of food many times before, this time the distinctive savory smell indicates to me that the holiday is here.

From what we have seen from the odyssey, Greek dinner parties were formal affairs with ritual events. The best foods and entertainment were presented to the guests to show off their wealth.

The warming rays of the sun slowly peeked through the window and into my room. As every morning begins, I am awakened by these beams of light shining in my face. As I sat up, I looked out my bedroom window. Through the thick brush of trees, I see what little sun I can as it casts its sunbeams in every direction.
