Having had a Thanksgiving mob scene for Thanksgiving late in November - hosted by Himself's niece and her husband, people flying in from Texas and Florida, driving in from Massachusetts, New York State, New York City, 24 people all told (easy drive for us as they also live in New Jersey about 90 minutes away) it was quietly pleasant to be just the two of us.
Christmas eve I made venison back strap with sour cherry cranberry chutney, chestnut puree, steamed Brussels sprouts. Dessert was fruitcake and chocolate coated fruitcake bonbons.
Christmas dinner was duck breast done in oven's broiler. I made a sauce of duck stock, red wine, orange juice, finely slivered orange zest with crushed juniper berries. Shoe string potatoes and asparagus. Repeat the dessert.
Delicious. Still and all, happy to be back to regular, easier meals. |
