Scrumptious fish pie and roasted root vegetables. It was simple and cobbled up.

    My in-laws treated us to a prime rib feast on Christmas Eve. So, my daughter made pancakes for breakfast, then we had leftovers for lunch on and I used leftover ham, from my company party, cheddar cheese, eggs, potatoes, and a little Bisquick (just a few tablespoons) to make a casserole and roasted beets (soaked in olive oil, vinegar and spices). It was just a simple meal to end a simply wonderful day spent with my lovely wife, daughters and the older daughter's boyfriend (he's a good kid who's living with us, now... and already a part of the family).

    I'm a very blessed man.

    Love and light, dear ones.

      We made a delicious beef tenderloin roast with roasted garlic mashed potatoes and fresh-off-the-stalk brussel sprouts in a rich fontina sauce. Simple, suprisingly fast, and totally delicious. I also made some creme brulee for dessert, although it wasn't my best effort...

      When my sister was in college, she made rabbit for Easter one year. My brother hasn't let up on her ever since about cooking the Easter bunny. This was about 33 years ago. She never should have told us, since she didn't live in this area at the time.

    we cooked a goose! Tucked a few slides of black truffle underneath the skin, fingerling potatoes and hedgehog mushrooms were cooked in the goosefat, and the whole awesome thing was served with braised sauerkraut.

    nums.
