When I was a kid we would visit the paper mill where my dad worked, and they had this huge shindig. Visit with Santa, a large model train display was set up, and all the kids were given a treat bag with a chocolate Santa and a popcorn ball. I miss the popcorn balls. They don't taste as good as I remember them these days.

Awww, roif, that's a sweet memory. And it sounds like a blast for the kids. My grandmother was Spanish and didn't make the traditional Christmas cookies but made these almost little donut-like cookies. They were in the shape of stars and dipped in honey or sugar water. Delish.
