The holidays are the perfect time to connect and celebrate with friends and family, sharing the spirit of the holiday and cultivating traditions. This season the Bella Public Relations team shares some of their favorite ways to celebrate the holidays.
THE GREAT GIFT EXCHANGE
Rachel Bronson, Account Director – “On Christmas Eve my grandpa cooks The Feast of the Seven Fishes. The next day, we eat Christmas cookies for breakfast while we open presents.”
Lauren Freeman, Account Manager – “Every Christmas Eve, my dad makes homemade shrimp scampi and we all eat homemade cookies and watch A Christmas Story on repeat while we open gifts.”
Arica Williams, Social Media Director – “On Christmas Eve my sisters and I were all allowed to open one gift and on Christmas morning my mother would always make ackee and saltfish, dumplings, and breakfast tea.”
FESTIVE ACTIVITIES
LeAura Luciano, Social Media Coordinator – “My family celebrates the season by spending time together! We usually do a group activity like ice skating before exchanging gifts and having a vegan dinner.”
Susan Small, Vice President & Beauty Director – “On Christmas day we celebrate with a good Asian meal and sometimes see a new movie in theaters. In past years we’ve had Korean, Japanese and Chinese food.”
FOOD AND FAMILY

Leesa Raab, Fashion & Lifestyle Director – “We would go to church on Christmas Eve and on Christmas Morning we would wake super early to open presents and then have egg gravy and biscuits for breakfast.”
Marla Russo, President – “Eat, eat and eat some more!”
Simply put, for us the holidays are all about food, fun, and family.
We wish you a happy holiday season and are looking forward to 2017!
