The first commercial Christmas card is up for sale again. Produced in 1843, it depicted an English family toasting the recipient with glasses of red wine—and caused some controversy at the time. https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2020/dec/04/first-commercially-printed-christmas-card-up-for-sale
@Gramdma2011 @estherschindler At my older brother's Bar mitzva (those happen at age 13), I got drunk as hell on wine and everyone just thought that was funny. Times have changed.
@estherschindler At New Years Eve, my parents gave us kids little tiny glasses with real champagne to celebrate the incoming year. Today, that would probably be jail time for them😬
