This year, C and I are staying home for Christmas and we're not entertaining, either. It's really... weird. I'm just not used to these small little holiday dinners, and I hardly know where to begin. I mean, it's not like I can cook a prime rib roast, because anything under three ribs just isn't worth cooking -- and three ribs easily feeds five or six people.
Right now, I'm leaning towards Beef Wellington, but haven't found a recipe that I really trust yet. Does anyone have one?
C is also requesting Nannie's Party Potatoes, though I made them for Thanksgiving with these guys, and while they are awesome, they're a dish you can really only make once a year (under threat of immediate myocardial infarction). But, knowing me, I'll end up making a small batch anyway.
Though it's definitely a little weird to be having such a quiet holiday, it's really fun to start our own traditions, blending the ones we both grew up with.
So, tell me, what are your holiday traditions? Oh, and if you have a Beef Wellington recipe you love, throw that my way, too!
