It’s not Christmas at my house without Chex party mix. I have a recipe from the ‘70’s that was torn from a box. The new recipe isn’t the same. My family has eaten 2 large containers of Chex mix in a matter of days.

Went out to a holiday dinner at Joon in Tysons. The grilled octopus was amazing.

Someone was telling me about this yesterday. Haven’t tried it yet but they thought it was amazing.
I always make stuffed shells for Christmas dinner. This year I had a guest who won’t/can’t eat tomatoes. So I made half with a garlicky white sauce. I wasn’t sure it would work because sometimes white sauce separates. Turned out amazing - and everyone thought so. It was so good.
Recipe?

The prime rib we ordered for Christmas dinner from Federalist Pig. I can’t remember the last time I had prime rib. It was heavenly.

Mexican wedding cakes I made. Delicious.

Was that bought or homemade? I'd love to try it.

I think the Homestead Farms eggnog. I have some left to enjoy tonight, too. Or maybe some linzer cookies with cran-raspberry filling. Other than that the food wasn’t especially delicious but very much enjoyed as it was shared with loved ones.

My German relatives made a deliciously tender venison ragout, paired with homemade knödel, schwartzkraut, and spätzle. Normally I am not a big fan of German cuisine, but it was delicious. The knödel was made with breadcrumbs and no potatoes!
