Ma ka ʻuhane o ka hauʻoli hoʻomaha a me nā kuʻuna ʻoluʻolu, ua hōʻike ʻia kahi hōʻike hou e nā loea ʻoliʻoli ma HubScore i ka Lone Star State kaulana loa.Lako Kalikimaka.ʻO ka hōʻike, nāna i nānā i nā tausani o Texans, ua ʻike ʻo ka wahi kiʻekiʻe e hele i ka ʻili peppermint.

ʻO ka ʻili Peppermint, kahi hana ʻoliʻoli i hana ʻia me nā papa kokoleka keʻokeʻo a me ka ʻeleʻele, i kāpīpī ʻia me ka candy peppermint i ʻoki ʻia, ua lilo ia i mea punahele hoʻomaha ma Texas.ʻO ka hui pū ʻana o ke kokoleka waiwai a me ka peppermint hōʻoluʻolu he mea punahele i waena o nā Texans he nui, e hauʻoli nei i kāna ʻono ʻono i ka wā hoʻomaha.

"ʻAʻole ia he mea kupanaha ʻo ka ʻili peppermint ka lole Kalikimaka kaulana loa ma Texas," wahi a Jane Smith, kahi kamaʻāina o Dallas."ʻO ia ka hui maikaʻi o ka ʻono a me ka minty hou e hoʻopili ai i ka ʻuhane hoʻomaha.Makemake au e kaʻana like me koʻu mau hoaaloha a me koʻu ʻohana i kēia manawa o ka makahiki.

Ua hōʻike pū ʻia ka hōʻike e pili ana nā kukui Kalikimaka kaulana ʻē aʻe ma Texas i nā honu caramel pecan, pretzels i uhi ʻia i ke kokoleka, a me nā kuki koʻikoʻi hoʻomaha.Leʻaleʻa pinepine ʻia kēia mau meaʻai ma nā pāʻina hoʻomaha, kaʻana like i waena o nā hoaaloha a me nā ʻohana, a hāʻawi ʻia i makana.

"Ke hoʻomau nei au i ka loaʻa ʻana o nā lole Kalikimaka like ʻole i kaʻu hui hoʻomaha makahiki," wahi a John Rodriguez, he kamaʻāina ʻo Houston.“Inā he honu caramel pecan i hana ʻia i ka home a i ʻole nā ​​​​pretzels i uhi ʻia i ke kokoleka i kūʻai ʻia ma ka hale kūʻai, mahalo nā mea a pau i ka loaʻa ʻana o kahi mea ʻono i ka wā e hoʻolauleʻa ai i ke kau."

ʻO ke kuʻuna o ka hāʻawi ʻana a me ka leʻaleʻa i nā lole Kalikimaka he ʻāpana ia o ka moʻomeheu Texas no nā hanauna.Hoʻomanaʻo nui ka poʻe Texans i nā hoʻomanaʻo maikaʻi o ka loaʻa ʻana o nā stockings i hoʻopiha ʻia me nā lole lole like ʻole a me ka hoʻokipa ʻana i nā mea hana home i ka wā hoʻomaha.

“ʻAʻole e like ka Kalikimaka me ka ʻole o nā lole lole e leʻaleʻa ai," wahi a Martha Garcia, he kupuna wahine mai San Antonio."He kuʻuna ia aʻu i hoʻoili ai i kaʻu mau moʻopuna, a hauʻoli wau i ka ʻike ʻana iā lākou e ʻono ana i nā mea ʻai like aʻu i hana ai i koʻu wā kamaliʻi."

Ma waho aʻe o ka hauʻoli o ka hoʻokomo ʻana i nā mea ʻono, ʻo ke kaʻana like ʻana i nā kukui Kalikimaka e hoʻoulu ai i ke ʻano o ke kaiāulu a me ka hui pū ʻana.Inā ʻo ka kuke ʻana i nā kuki me nā mea aloha a i ʻole ke hoʻololi ʻana i nā kīʻaha i hana lima ʻia me nā hoalauna, ʻo ka hana o ka hāʻawi ʻana i nā mea leʻaleʻa kahi ala e hoʻokokoke ai i nā kānaka.

Ke kokoke mai nei ka wā hoʻomaha, nui ka poʻe Texans e ʻiʻini e ʻai i ka moʻomeheu i hoʻohanohano ʻia o ka leʻaleʻa a kaʻana like i nā kukui Kalikimaka.Inā ʻo ka ʻili pepa, nā honu caramel pecan, a i ʻole nā ​​kuki kō, e hoʻomau ʻia kēia mau mea ʻono i ka hauʻoli a hauʻoli i nā ʻohana a me nā kaiāulu ma ka mokuʻāina ʻo Lone Star.A me ka ʻuhane o ka lā hoʻomaha, ʻaʻohe mea kānalua e noho mau nā lole Kalikimaka i mea kuʻuna aloha no nā makahiki e hiki mai ana.
