We had sausages and potato salad for lunch, tonight it's only cookies and canapes. Tomorrow: some sort of roast with dumplings and Spätzle. No idea about the 26th, but I've been promised ice cream for dessert :D
I'll have dinner with my sister and her family. We have lot of things to eat: all kind of canapés, good ham and cheese, cured loin of pork, tons of seafood, smoked salmon, all kind of sweets, panetone... And tomorrow we have lunch together, too: a seafood soup or cream and cut of beef filled with fruits. I bought a glühwein bottle to show this german great invention to my family...But it fell and broke! T_T I'm from Madrid, Spain.
Christmas Day mittag: Baked ham, mashed pots, feld salat mit meerrettisch und apfeln, and Grandmother's White Fruit Cake (a mix of American south - where I'm from - and German). We're in Rheinland-Pfalz.
Christmas morning: American cinnamon rolls and scrambled eggs with Tabasco! Best EVER!
USA: Boston, Massachusetts. A traditional New England Christmas Dinner: Roast Turkey with Giblet Gravy Herbed Bread Stuffing Mashed Potatoes Butternut Squash Green Beans in Casserole with French Fried Onions Celery sticks Cranberry sauce Apple Cider Coffee Squash Pie Fruits and Nuts and Cheeses and Mixed Olives and Pickles Plus: my own additions -- a lemon cake, an orange cake, and a lemon meringue pie, plus a big dish of apple crisp. Vanilla ice cream and whipped cream as toppings for squash pie, apple crisp and cake. Later in the evening when neighbors stop by for late dessert: sparkling cider from Martinetti's, served in flutes. Christmas Eve: Salmon in yogurt and dill sauce, couscous, aparagus. No dessert (the tradition is to fast before the feast).
