CHRISTMAS COOKING NEEDS PLANNING

As the busy Christmas cooking season is around the corner, it takes planning to know when to buy the ingredients. For Italians, the Feast of the Seven Fishes is huge for Christmas Eve. I have written posts on these dishes and may revisit some over the next few weeks. Some fish items can be bought frozen but many need to be fresh. So knowing which fish market is best really helps. I will be thinking about what to give my two working daughters to help with the season too. Time for more soups that can be provided in "take out" containers to them. I get to cook. Barb gets to do all the other stuff that comes with Christmas. But she does get to eat to keep her energy going!!

A hearty December soup to start the week was good.
