After a Christmas banquet of hors d' oeuvres we are still finishing up the leftovers at every meal and at this point I'm thinking a nice bread and butter sandwich would taste good about now!
DH has a birthday coming up on the 29th and we'll all be going out for a meal in early January to celebrate that. Daughter gave us some frozen chicken and dumplings and cabbage rolls so I'll probably just thaw one of those out.
It depends on if the crazy girls want to spend New Years Eve with us. Sometimes they sleep over for two nights. That will be maybe a pizza or Chinese food night and a scary movie after the zoo walk. If they don't come then we will do our annual zoo walk, then off to one maybe two parties.
With Christmas behind us it is time to focus on New Years. What are your food and drink plans for New Years?
New Years Eve will be chili with rice, cheese, crackers, etc., while we are watching Alabama play in the National Championship!
I also make a New Years Soup with noodles (long life), rice (abundance), collards (dollars), blackeyed peas (pennies), and pork (root forward) for the next day.
New Year's, we usually stay home and grill (weather permitting) burgers, wings, steaks, hot dogs and watch the bowl games. A few friends come over and we may have a few beers and relax.
Bagna cà uda - traditional Italian fare on New Year's Day.
