Yesterday was Christmas eve and there is nothing to report that would fit with the title of this blog. Maybe I might call what we did yesterday “grazing heavy.” For instance, one of our dishes was lasagna made in cupcake molds. The idea was to be able to eat lasagna while schmoozing with the other Pilat Eve attendees. There were also potato latkes. So good. It was a whole day of great food and wine.

Moving on to Christmas morning, our tradition is to have bagels and lox with cream cheese, capers and red onion. We all love it and it kind of brings both our traditions together. And I suppose if that were the big splurge of the day, it wouldn’t be too bad. However, Jonathan is making a prime rib roast for the main Christmas meal today. I am going to eat it and enjoy it. With the exception of a hamburger back in July, it will be my only beef this year.

Merry Christmas!
