Christmas Left-Overs

I still have photos kicking around from Christmas; might as well get them out there.

For Christmas day, I hosted a brunch at our house for the family. Above, a tropical fruit granola.



Maple Sticky Rolls



Vanilla-Hazelnut Mini French Toast



Latkes



Oranges with Pomegranates and Ginger



Christmas Eve day, we spent with my mom, step-dad, and youngest sister in North Carolina. My Mom made a lovely vegetarian dish for dinner; acorn squash, filled with a sage-mashed potato and baked, on a bed of wild rice in an amazing wine sauce, which was served on wilted spinach, and served with the best reduction sauce I've ever tasted.



I never bake cut-out cookies, mainly because I hate decorating them. This year, though, I decided to go ahead. I let Matt and Alex decorate half





while I took over the rest.




This should officially put the holidays behind us. Well, except for Valentine's, and Mardi Gras, and St. Patrick's day...




This month, we're keeping things Black & White.

Our canapes, our drinks; everything in Black & White.

The party is Saturday, 20 January; today is the Last day to 'RSVP' with your entries. (thehappysorceress at gmail dot com)
