In yesterday's post I promised to share the menus I designed for our Christmas Eve and Christmas day dinner parties. They're festive menus, many are tried and true ... although the Pineapple Bread Pudding is a recipe I created just a few weeks ago ... they're crowd-pleasing, complementing and colorful dishes. Check in throughout the week, I'll be posting some of the recipes from these menus.
