[alymaibra]

Just a friendly question for everyone around the world to see what people like to munch on during, in between and after the holidays.

so ill start with listing mine

BLUEBERRY CHEESECAKE (a family recipe)

[GreenMachine]

One year I ate an entire pumpkin pie. I ate it over about three nights. Big slice with cold glass of milk each night.

I like the Mexican Wedding Cake cookies my grandmother makes. Mmmmmm.... powdered sugar walnut goodness right there.

Edit: Here's a recipe

[BlueWillowPlate]

That's really a tough one.

It used to be the homemade eggnog I annually made, but that stuff is just too rich (and too strong) for me now. It consisted of 12 egg yolks, a pound of sugar, cream, and plenty of whisky--I just can't do that anymore.


I love Champagne, but hardly ever drink it. This is a holiday indulgence that I hope I always can keep.

Homemade peanut butter fudge from my mom, hot crab dip with fresh bread, stuffing

[movingtohouston]

Fudge, fudge, fudge, enough said.

smoked salmon, gravadlax and foie gras. Real special treats for special occasions.

Every winter I make lamb stew (or I bug my mom to make it for me if I'm going for a visit). I can't get through the winter without at least one pot of lamb stew.

It is a comfort food that stretches back to childhood for me.

Cookies! Mom makes dozens and dozens of Italian meatball cookies -- chocolate, with cloves and raisins -- and it just ain't Christmas without them.

Kolacky - (pron. kolach- ky) bohemian recipe, my grandmother used to make. They are requested that I make them yearly, and I love them. Like flaky little pies. Flavors: apricot, prune, raspberry, and strawberry. With a little powder sugar on them. YUM!
