Not Going Home For Christmas

[affreca]

It looks to be a white Christmas on the plains. As the thunderstorm/snowstorm/blizzard is predicted to stretch along my entire route home starting the day before I want to travel to the day after, I'm not going to bother. Rather hunker down and snuggle (and set up new loom). Tentatively, I'm just pushing all plans back one week and will spend New Year's visiting family. My parents mentioned coming to visit me, but part of the reason I wanted to head north was to see grandparents (all five of them), and most of them don't travel anymore.

So what should I cook for Christmas? Lawnchair still doesn't eat red meat, and I'm sick of bird.

Jack keeps trying to push lasagna as a traditional holiday meal.

Tempting. Easy to make, yet home cooked. Lots of cheese. A great excuse to make tons of garlic bread, and plenty of leftovers.

Seafood gumbo!

Salmon.

Or, the official holiday dish of Calvin Trillin, spaghetti carbonara. Just keep all the bacon for yourself.

A thought.

If leftovers are a problem, you could cook what you want, freeze leftovers, bring leftovers to SD. Then we could take your leftovers and our leftovers to grandparents and feed them. DJP
