🎄🐟 A Christmas Eve Tradition from Eastern Europe 🐟🎄 Did you know that in many Eastern European countries, eating carp on Christmas Eve is a cherished tradition? 🐟✨ Families gather to enjoy this freshwater fish as part of a meat-free feast, symbolising luck, prosperity, and a nod to centuries-old customs.

For many of us, Thanksgiving marks the start of the festive period – a special time for family, friends, gratitude and relaxation. If you’re hosting this year, consider these simple tips to promote responsible and moderate drinking: - Offer a variety of options: Provide non-alcoholic beverages like sparkling water, mocktails, or spiced fruit juices alongside alcoholic drinks to give everyone a choice. - Set the pace: Start with a toast and keep the focus on food and conversation to encourage slower drinking. - Serve food with drinks: Offering snacks before and after the main meal will ensure your guests are never drinking alcohol on an empty stomach.  - Be mindful of measures: Serve standard drink sizes and avoid over-pouring – this will help guests to keep track of their intake. - Plan for safe journeys home: Ensure guests who are drinking have a designated driver, use taxis and rideshare apps, or have a place to stay. At IARD, we’re dedicated to promoting responsible drinking and fostering safe, enjoyable celebrations. This Thanksgiving, let’s create a welcoming environment where everyone can enjoy themselves responsibly. #Thanksgiving #ResponsibleDrinking #ModerationMatters
