There hasn’t been a ton of food cooking happening in my kitchen this week, due to the somehow suddenly extreme stress of Christmas-related things. How did it get stressful? I don’t know! But the stove has been silent…well, except for Crystal’s Extreme Truffle Making. (I wanted to document tnat process, but alas, I mostly missed it. However our kitchen had a heavenly chocolate smell for awhile.)
But don’t fear because tomorrow will be the Pseudo-Christmas Eve dinner extravaganza. Well, extravaganza might be laying it on a bit thick, but there will be food, yet again. I’ll be making up my family’s traditional Christmas Eve dinner, a few nights early for friends who will be leaving town to visit their own families and whatnot.
What is this traditional Christmas Eve dinner, you ask? That would be the near-infamous Beer Cheese Soup, with summer sausage, lovely cheese, crispy bread, perhaps some salad, and for dessert? Well, that I haven’t decided yet. I guess you’ll just have to wait until Friday…
