Even if the weather outside is frightful, to John McGivern, Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year. And it’s all about the traditions he holds dear, which speak to both his heart and his taste buds! For John, it wouldn’t be Christmas without Usinger’s, Aggie's Bakery, Buddy Squirrel chocolates, the Milwaukee City Christmas Tree, trips to enjoy the holiday lights, Sts. Peter & Paul, vintage ornaments and a lot of memories of the Kooky Cooky House and of childhood Christmases. John’s hope is that you will find his traditions to be familiar, or maybe just entertaining, so that you can both create and be warmed by your own traditions during this special season.
