We had a delightful time cooking yesterday and the resulting food was so very very delicious.. While we cooked my daughter shoveled the driveway. About 4 inches of snow. So a "White Christmas" here in Maine. Rain is supposed to happen at some point....25 degrees. Not going to rain at 25 degrees. No Sun.
Today the menu is Christmas Burritos. I've told the story of forgetting to plan for Christmas Day Food many times.....I made up a Christmas Burrito Story for my children and it stuck. We love the burritos.
We have no dessert....I wanted to buy or bake something but was voted down by my Son. He says I have my Chocolate covered donut balls.....and that is true... I saved some for today. Planning ahead I have bottle of wine ready to open.. but might have a nice Margarita instead. Or a Gin and Tonic.
No presents... we each go out and buy whatever we want- 365 days a year---so what's the point?
Flu- and back pain at number one so my Lunch Buddy cancelled her order for Lobsters for the family dinner. They have a tree and gifts....(spell check said they had a tree and GOATS)......I doubt my Lunch Buddy would allow goats in the house to nibble on her Christmas Tree.
That's it for today...the house smells like fried onions...the book I recently read was about a family owned Pierogi Restaurant and they mentioned smelling like fried onions....yep.
Connie...the homemade ones are very sturdy....nothing like the freezer ones..they don't travel well, so I can't send you one....I wish I could.. Merry Christmas to ALL!!!!!!!!!!!
