Happy Winter Solstice to you and Mrs, too.
Winter Solstice is something to me but not Christmas. It so happen it always or most of the time falls on 22 Dec three days before Christmas.

No, I dunno how to make. I go any hawker centre to buy , if I can mke it I go to th popular stall. Nice black seseme and peanuts they sell.
No big dinner at home. Just go temple pray to ancestor.
This occasion is considered a big big one way back in ancient China. It was Chinese New Year in ancient China.
my grandma is getting on and she has stopped making them too. these past few years, we would have a fam dinner during the weekend rather than the actual day especially if it falls on a weekday

I see. At least, your family gathers to have dinner for this occasion.
Sorry, I was guessing if you were a Malay gal.
Now I know you are not.
