For lunch we had Cheesy Baked Black-Eyed Pea Dip, ham and cheese croissants, and Benedictine Sandwiches [Southern Living] on croissants.
We had Okonomiyaki [Dan Leo] though we also called it a vegetable latke. Meredith added a bit of water which she regretted but I thought they were fine!

We had a lot of leftover ham and some frozen baguette so I made open-faced /_id/20201121163445. I actually doubled the amount of béchamel and froze half (I didn't intend to but I accidentally doubled the flour). I also grated the cheese larger. This was faster and easier.
These were very good! I would do it this way again. Maybe even as an appetizer to bring somewhere.

I cooked it a bit longer and let it sit a bit more. This helped with cutting!

We made a pretty simple, low-key Christmas dinner. It was just us, Brooke, Bill, Ann, and Lulu.
For dinner it was:
For dessert, Brooke made macarons. Lulu brought traditional Cuban Flan (we asked her to bring something meaningful). And a cranberry pie dessert from Trader Joes

Subbed 1/2 cup of pumpkin for the banana. That's for a double batch and just skipped the yogurt part. And maple syrup

Continuing our tradition of fondue with decorating the Christmas Tree.
Most of the dippers were cooked the same way as 2021-12-04. We had
We were playing with the idea of serving the fondue in the pumpkin but the first one we cut was dried out. Then we cut into an heirloom one. It was too big and very hard but you could tell it was flavorful. It almost smelled like cantaloupe. So we baked it for about 1.25 hours at 350 to soften it. It didn't work to serve but we decided to cube it as a dipper.
We also opted to try broccolini instead of Brussels sprouts. Both just to be different and because it was easier not requiring the prep. I sautéed it
The fondue itself was just Trader Joes
