Another interesting cultural insight, thanks a lot SP.

I just wonder what is the lemon leaf and grape leaf have to do with Christmas? just wondering cause we have different celebrations (two eid's) here in Qatar, even though we take Christmas as a holiday for some companies depending on the foreigners staff present.

Una pregunta para mis amigos de SpanishPod.

?Porque no ponen la Pregunta del Dia en espanol hasta para los Novatos? 

 Por ejemplo, "?Cual es su cuento predilecto de la navidad?" 

A proposito, ?como puedo escribir mis comentarios aqui con acentos y simbolos ortograficos como el tilde que se utilizan en espanol? ?Y hay un "spell check" para espanol?

Ahora para contestar su pregunta de ahora, mis cuentos predilectos de la navidad son el nacimiento de Jesus y el de los Reyes Magos. Son cuentos muy buenos porque de esto se trata la navidad.

!Feliz Navidad a todos!

Great topical lesson with a few surprises.The Magos in los Reyes Magos looks so similar to Magi and yet Liliana was surprised by Magi.Probably kidding around though right?

"y le van quitando" was translated in the pdf as "and they give it away" but in the podcast discussion you seemed to be saying they take it away which has the opposite meaning.So is it implying that they gave these vine and lemon leaves and then took them back again?

Also pdf translated lemon leaves whereas the podcast translated as lime leaves.Does Spanish make no distinction?

On your last question, both lemons and limes are called limones.  You can clarify:
limón amarillo – lemon
limón verde – lime
