Sunday Dinner, 12/27/15?? - cjs - 12-27-2015

What's on the menu for everyone today??

Leftovers here - ham and potato gratins and another batch of Brussels sprouts, bacon & pecans.

I was the lucky recipient of 4 (!) foodie baskets for Christmas and I'm just having a great time going thru item by item.

Had fun with a jar of beets yesterday - these are so good. made a goat cheese green salad adding them and making a vinaigrette with the 'brine' on the beets. very tasty.

Well, you must be having a blast with all those goodies, Jean! I'm looking forward to hearing what you do with each one.

Not sure what we're doing for dinner right now. I'm going to a play this afternoon with Heather and the kiddies, so just might be Chinese take-out when we get back.

My "other" daughter is getting married today!! I am just beside myself so we'll be having a catered dinner

Jean, William would be envious of those beets, and the salad!

Have fun, Maryann! Time to sit back and relax, in my opinion!

Denise, I didn't realize you had two daughters? Have a good time!

Mom insisted on purchasing a spiral sliced ham on sale last week to bake and bring for Christmas. Baked up, it was too dry for my taste, as expected. That said, I'm repurposing it. I'm chilling a batch of ham salad for lunch and boiling off the bone for split pea soup for dinner with grilled cheese sandwiches.

I love beets in almost any form these days, so I'm with William on this one. Enjoy, Jean!

I hope you had a terrific play date, Maryann.

Enjoy the wedding, Denise. Best wishes for the happy couple!

Sorry about the dry ham. Daphne. It sounds like you have it covered, however. I really wish John would eat legumes. One of my favorite childhood outings when I visited my grandparents in Santa Barbara was split pea soup at Anderson's in Solvang. John won't touch the stuff. I'm super-jealous of your dinner! I hope it's awesome!

We're having patty melts...not at all healthy. I really need to refocus my diet....major sigh!

My other 'daughter' has been best friends with my daughter since they were 10 years old. She has been a big part of our lives like Laura has been part of theirs.

Congrats Denise------we absolutely adore our "others" as well!!!


Re: Sunday Dinner, 12/27/15?? - Gourmet_Mom - 12-28-2015

Oh, how sweet! I love it, Denise! I'm sure you had a great time celebrating with family and close friends!

this is one of the things I love about Facebook - I keep up with all the 'kids' who are like family to us thru their postings. And, they don't seem to mind having the 'olderly' folks hang around!!!
