Merry Christmas from Today Media Group! For most today is the day loved ones meet, friends gather, aromas of food fill the air and gifts, laughter and joy is shared with abundance. Of course we wish you all this and more, our wish for you is that this Christmas is filled with all that you hold dear and that at the end of today you curl up under the covers feeling satiated with love, kindness, spirituality and food.
