I used to think of Mexican food as a once-in-a-while type of thing because it can be so heavy, but I learned how to lighten it up easily and keep it just as flavorful. That's awesome, since it's the perfect festive dinner for hanging out with friends on a relaxed night.

I'm from Philadelphia, and I go to Philly a bunch throughout the holidays, which is my only time to see my family, so we get pretty festive around that time of year. It's also the only time I have vacation.

Abbi Jacobson

The British fans, they are very festive; they support their people.

Andre Ward

Most of me was glad when my mother died. She was a handful, but not in a cute, festive way. More in a life-threatening way, that had caused me a long time ago to give up all hope of ever feeling good about having had her as a mother.

Anne Lamott

I love the culture of grilling. It creates an atmosphere that is festive but casual.

Bobby Flay

I'm so excited to be appearing in 'Peter Pan.' It really is an extraordinary production, the like of which Wembley has never seen before. It's a big, bold arena extravaganza and festive treat with something for everyone.

Bradley Walsh

I don't normally try to stay trim over the festive period - a nice little shift dress and some tights always hides the Christmas bulge.

Caroline Flack

Festive cocktails mean color, lots of color.

Danny Meyer

For many people, Christmas is indeed the most wonderful time of year. But the festive period can also bring its own unique stresses and strains. But don't despair: there are solutions to many - if not all - of these issues.

Ellie Taylor

November is auspicious in so many parts of the country: the rice harvest is already in, the weather starts to cool, and the festive glow which precedes Christmas has began to brighten the landscape.

F. Sionil Jose

Bullfights have so much color. Not just the matador but also the bull, the arena, and the public. It's all very festive.

Fernando Botero

Our thoughts fly therefore by themselves in this festive hour of our plant community, to the man whom we thank for the ressurection of our Nation: Adolf Hitler, the patron of German labour and German art.

Gustav Krupp

When you recognize the festive and the still moments as moments of prayer, then you gradually realize that to pray is to live.

Henri Nouwen

I always look forward to the holidays because I love dressing up in festive, shimmery evening dresses.

Hilary Rhoda

What good to me is the festive garment of freedom when I am in a slave's smock at home?

Johann Georg Hamann

Well, you know, for me, I think Spanish food is festive.

Jose Garces

My husband is very much of the ilk that expects to waited on hand and foot during the festive season.

Kate Garraway

I used to think of Mexican food as a once-in-a-while type of thing because it can be so heavy, but I learned how to lighten it up easily and keep it just as flavorful. That's awesome, since it's the perfect festive dinner for hanging out with friends on a relaxed night.

Spritzers are festive yet economical. By adding seltzer and juice, you stretch the number of people a bottle of wine serves.

Katie Lee

Of all the meals that represented British culture, perhaps none captured the imagination more than the Christmas pudding. It was the Victorians who firmly fixed the traditional plum pudding as a festive dish.

Kwasi Kwarteng

It's quite nice to have a bit more color on the lips during wintertime. And it's festive, isn't it?
