Happy Festivus…for the rest of us!

ABC News:

Seven yadda-yadda years after “Seinfeld”‘s finale episode, Festivus – the holiday for people fed up with holiday stress – continues to be celebrated in homes, schools, offices, bars and parking lots. And now, the holiday for the rest of us is getting a lot more attention.

Perhaps you’ve already welcomed a tinsel-free aluminum Festivus pole into your home, and you’ve celebrated just like George Costanza’s fractured family, with the traditional Airing of Grievances – a time when family members let each other know what a disappointment they’ve been to each other.

These days, your cup can runneth over with Festivus Grape Ranch wine, and four varieties of Festivus beer. This Seinfeldian holiday has its own songs (“Gather ‘Round the Pole”), recipes (Ham With Junior Mint and Snapple Glaze), and even a Miss Festivus pageant. If demand spikes, you can even be sure Ben & Jerry’s will bring back Festivus flavor ice cream, which has already enjoyed two successful holiday runs.
