CHRISTMAS 2025 DINNER

 I am now in the habit of having a picture of the Dinners served.

Christmas dinner for 11.

Appetizers to start. 

Christmas Crackers. A blessing on the meal.

Turkey, Italan sausage, bread stuffing with sage, gravy, mashed potatoes, peas, carrots, brussel sprouts, flat beans, roasted red peppers, sweet potatoes, and cranberry sauce.

Drinks of choice- beer, wine, water, sprite, diet pepsi.

Dessert was a chocolate yule log, cream cake, ice cream, sugar cookies, fudge and coffee.

A good time with family and good eating.

Merry Christmas everyone.

REMEMBERING THOSE CHRISTMAS EVE SEAFOOD DISHES

 Adolph was an amazing cook. Loved his many dishes.

But Christmas Eve was special. He learned to make all the seafood dishes from his Mom

Then added some new ones of his own.

Can always have one with meat sauce.

Adolph did love to cook

We would have dinner for two.

Added some lobster one year.

Our last Christmas Eve dinner for two.

Oh the seafood pasta. Yum.

Bacala soup.

Lots of good memories of good eating with my guy.

CHRISTMAS 2025 FUN AT COMMUNITY EVENTS

 A community group that I attend regularly had the Annual Christmas evening.

Richmond Hill Historical Society has monthly meetings with speakers. Our December meeting is a Christmas party with some entertainement.

On December 9, 2025 it was a group from the Program Director's church.

Christmas songs.

The food was a pot luck of sandwiches, goodies and drinks.

I like to make a pickle platter. The red and white item is grape tomatoe with bocincini halves.

A cheese platter with salami and kobassa slices. Then cracker with a dip. The bell dish has hot peppers.

Trays of sandwiches, veggie platter and fruit platter were purchased from Longos.

All in all a fun evening.
