London, Dec 25 - Actor Tom Cruise says his whole family gathers in the kitchen on Christmas morning to cook breakfast.

The 49-year-old admits it's not the presents under the tree that excite him on Christmas morning. Rather, he much prefers the Cruise tradition of preparing a meal as a family.

"The family gets together and everyone pitches in... I'm no slouch. I'm not a gourmet chef, but I can whip up some eggs. (We're) gonna chill. We like taking those times. We really just all hang together and play games," femalefirst. co. uk quoted Cruise as saying.(IANS)
