I've enjoyed the festive food chat here.

This Sunday, we are warming up a spiral cut WI smoked ham and the sides are fresh biscuits, New Mexico Blue Cornmeal muffins, roasted Brussel Sprouts and hand cut Sweet Potato Fries. Chocolates of some sort to finish.

We have an assortment of wine and some hearty local brews. My task is to prep the veggies on Saturday. 'Nuff said!

We always have a spiral ham on Christmas...

For dessert we usually have Bush D Noel.

is leaving on Tues to go to Colorado and work the ski season in Vail. So I'm making her fave dish, chicken marsala, as her going away dinner on Sunday. That will be a nice prelude into the Thanksgiving Day festivities!

We stopped doing turkey a few years ago

and make a Timpano every year. It's a blast--the prep takes all day and everyone has a different job. Highly recommended if you have a crowd and some patience.
