In-game Holiday Festivities?

Well, as I've said in a few topics before, I started to play WoW around a month ago (maybe a bit less), I've gotten to be a level 26 Warlock Blood-Elf and I'm progressing at a fair/good pace.
Now from what I've seen from my cousin playing in the past two years, and what I've noticed on the forums, the winter holiday season brings around special things in WoW.
I was wondering if someone could please tell me exactly what special/unique things happen around this time, how do I partake in these special quests and stuff, and if there are any restrictions or such. Thanks a bunch in advanced.

Sorry for double posting but I have another question. I am making gingerbread cookies and have noticed the price for Eggs is huge, I decided to farm them for a bit. the problem is, I have them in stacks of 10, but I would like them to be in stacks of 5. Can someone please tell me how that is done. Thanks in advanced.

If you hadn't noticed, the names of the
Smokywood Pastures
vendors are plays on various retail stores:
The Exodar
Wolgren Jinglepocket (i.e.,
Walgreens
)
Bessbi Jinglepocket (i.e.,
Best Buy
)
Ironforge
Wulmort Jinglepocket
(i.e.,
Wal-Mart
)
Macey Jinglepocket
(i.e.,
Macy's
)
Orgrimmar
Kaymard Copperpinch
(i.e.,
Kmart
)
Penney Copperpinch
(i.e.,
J.C. Penney
)
Shattrath
Olnayvi Copperpinch (i.e.,
Old Navy
)
Eebee Jinglepocket (i.e.,
EB Games
)
Silvermoon
Morshelz Copperpinch (i.e.,
Marshalls
)
Hotoppik Copperpinch (i.e.,
Hot Topic
)
Stormwind
Khole Jinglepocket
(i.e.,
Kohl's
)
Guchie Jinglepocket
(i.e.,

Thunder Bluff
Whulwert Copperpinch
(i.e.,
Woolworth's

Seersa Copperpinch
(i.e.,

Undercity
Nardstrum Copperpinch
(i.e.,

Jaycrue Copperpinch
(i.e.,

Then there's the
Strange Snowman
in Alterac. According to Wulmort and Kaymard, his real name is "Sacks" (i.e.,
Saks
).
It's interesting to note that, aside from a couple
winter revelers
, Darnassus doesn't participate in Winter Veil. It's the only major city that doesn't have decorations or Smokywood Pastures representatives.
Wowhead doesn't have entries for the Shattrath, Exodar, and Silvermoon SP vendors yet, but you can find them near the banks.
Smokywood Pastures maintains a presence in Azeroth outside the holiday. They're just generic food and drink vendors who don't sell holiday goodies, but you can find them outside the Battleground entrances. They're also named for stores:
Alterac Valley
Alliance:
Mirvyna Jinglepocket
(i.e.,
Mervyns
)
Horde:
Dillord Copperpinch
(i.e.,
Dillard's
)
Arathi Basin
Alliance:
Targot Jinglepocket
(i.e.,
Target
)
Horde:
Kosco Copperpinch
(i.e.,
Costco
)
Warsong Gulch
Alliance:
Gapp Jinglepocket
(i.e.,
Gap
)
Horde:
Hecht Copperpinch
(i.e.,
Hecht's
)

Hallow's End is also my favorite, but I was very impressed with Brewfest as well. Yes, it was kinda buggy, but with the dailies and goodies you could get, it kept you occupied throughout the event. With the other holidays, what typically happens is the first few days everybody rushes to do the quests, and then after that, it's business as usual.
