We all pretty much agreed that it was more relaxing celebrating on Christmas Day this year. As much as the holidays are great, they can be exhausting! And I have to admit, it feels good to get back into the usual routine of life. The food turned out well. We had wild rice soup and appetizers, and this year I tried to plan things so that only a couple had to be heated up in the oven. MUCH better than last year. Here is the menu ...
- Creamy Wild Rice Soup (Maggie and Mary's)
- Veggie Pizza (Papa Murphy's)
- Meatballs, with Grape Jelly and Chili Sauce
- BBQ Little Smokies
- Herring and Crackers
- Shrimp Cocktail
- Cheese Ball and Salami with Crackers
- Cowboy Salsa with Tortilla Chips
- Hummus and Pita Chips
- Vegan for Katie (Trader Joe's Roasted Veggie Pizza and Vegetable Pakora)
- Hot Apple Cider
- Mudpie and Black Jack Cherry Ice Cream Pies
- Cherry Pie Jello
Tristin has been laying in the tree, and branches are breaking. It's sad.
But, Jake and I also made a trip to Menard's yesterday, and shopped their sales. We picked up a new tree for next year and some LED lights, all 40% off. Hopefully Tristin will settle down and not wreck this one!
