Sometimes the holidays feel loud in all the wrong ways — crowded schedules, long lists, a little too much rushing. And yet, there’s this quiet joy that happens when people gather around a board filled with small, beautiful things. My Charcuterie has seen it year after year: a Christmas charcuterie board doesn’t just decorate a table, it slows people down. It invites them to pick, to taste, to talk without hurry. And maybe that’s why these holiday boards have become such a beloved ritual — not for their perfection, but for the way they make a room feel warmer, more human.
