Usually we have a big family party on Christmas Eve but 2020 is not usual. So we scaled everything down to accommodate three people rather than ten.

Chicken liver pâté with homemade bread, chips and dip, crudités and olives

I made the chicken liver pâté. Our daughter has a food blog and she told me to use the recipe that she had posted. Easy enough but she had three recipes and I picked the wrong one. Oh well, it still tasted good. I also made pigs in blankets which is basically hot dogs wrapped up in crescent roll dough. Finally John made pot stickers (from frozen) and our daughter contributed chocolate chip and spice cookies.

Pigs in blankets

We watched two Christmas movies, Trading Places and A Muppet Christmas Carol. We ate too much and drank wine and enjoyed it all.
