This year is nothing because of covid, everybody is on lockdown.

I forget past meals....all I know they were happy and delicious.

What does lockdown mean, the supermarkets were jammed the other day and food is flying

For me on the Eve it is usually grapes, fruits, salmon, cold cuts and cheese with a lot of booze...

On Christmas Day it is usually Cornish Hens and Veggies and again Booze...

So what is your favorite meal?

The wife bought a 2 rib roast beef, with potatoes and fresh Brussel sprouts, and she made ricotta cookies and St. Joseph zeppolies really Italian cream puffs along with 5 other types of cookies. She is saving the Italian three color cookies until our son comes home

When I lived alone my Christmas dinner was orange chicken, garlic shrimp and fried rice.

Plate at Marc PI express. That was my dinner last night. I finally live alone for last month. I like it and am not to give it up soon. My casual girl friend for the past year dropped the L word on me twice yesterday. Might have to make some changes there. The living alone part ain't one of the changes I wanna make.
