We had Chinese for Christmas eve, and then for Christmas dinner we picked up a deli platter with lunchmeat and cheese.<br />No cooking required. lol!<br /><br />I of course made some yummy garlic mashed potatoes with lots of lumps. I cooked the entire 5lb bag and my stepmom said, "Why so much? You're going to be eating mashed potatoes for days!"<br /><br />lol! I knew better. We did end up with leftovers, but just enough to enjoy the next day and then they were gone. <br />Now I'm craving mashed potatoes...<br /><br />Oh and some of the cherry chocolate kiss cookies. <br /><br />Mmm! I love marachino cherries. I have fond memories from the 80's, of coming home from long nights of...um...partying, and heading straight for the fridge to imbibe on a jar of marachino cherries(after gobbling down an entire can of wonton soup...but let's not go there)<br /><br />ahem.<br /><br />Thanks for the recipe. I will be trying that very soon.<br /><br />Oh. And the snowflake in the spiderweb? Brilliant!<br />I'm sure it landed there just for you to find it.<br />Good for you in noticing the small magical miracles of life. :)<br /><br />~LisaLaughing Orca Ranchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03562627840013868980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481203733160854169.post-58132982459501396602010-12-29T21:43:36.499-05:002010-12-29T21:43:36.499-05:00Girl, I just wanted to let you know.

Yep, we name our dinner birds to honor them for the life they give us. Very tasty indeed. Such a lovely slice of heaven in your woods. Remarkable snow flake picture as well.<br /><br />Merry Christmas,<br />MalNekkid Chickenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08749417208223478262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481203733160854169.post-73973053619040669622010-12-29T21:10:48.503-05:002010-12-29T21:10:48.503-05:00Oh, yum - that's one tasty looking meal!
