Happy Boxing Day!

I'm not sure if that's really what you say, but it sounds better than Merry Boxing Day!

Before we came to England, we had no idea what Boxing Day really was or where the name came from. For all we knew, it could have been...
a. The day you step into the boxing ring with your "favorite" relatives after too much family togetherness.
b. The day to duke it out with fellow shoppers in an attempt to box up those after-Christmas sales.
c. The day you box up Christmas dinner leftovers to take to the elderly or poor.

While they might all be legitimate answers, we found out that the answer is suppose to be C. In reality, I think it's a combination of B and C :)

For us, it was none of the above. We're selfish with our leftovers and wouldn't know who to give them to even if we wanted to. We went into York expecting some better-than-usual prices in the stores and found that almost all of them were still closed from Christmas—we were lucky to find a place open for lunch. The place was virtually deserted. Apparently the really big shopping day is tomorrow. Maybe Boxing Day is just a good time to beat your pillow into shape for a good, long post-Christmas nap :)
