    Our tradition is chili and cornbread to accompany a night of board games and movies on New Years Eve. Black-eyed Peas and Collards on New Years Day. My CSA gave us an enormous blue pumpkin/squash during the final distribution, so this year we are roasting a stuffed squash as the main dish.

    Just nailed some reservations for 9pm at this local wannabe tapas place I like. Only creative thought being applied to cooking on this side of the state, and it's small plates so I like it. Now I just hope I don't have to teach them that it's a crime to drown bourbon in sugar when making an old fashioned...

    Haha I'm in Scotland. Hogmanay dinner here is a few bottles of whisky, maybe some shortbread. Steak pie tomorrow :)
  • We are making taco for dinner.

    Hubby and me are enjoying a quiet night in with our new couch and some movies. One last hoorah before cracking down again: wine, cheese, prosciutto, baguette...or as I like to call it, Lunchables for adults. Happy New Year, everyone!

    We are going to family's and she always makes a big spread. I know I'll go over my calorie goal but will be back at it for the new year. New Year's is only once a year....I think it's okay to indulge a little.

    I'm a kitchen widow (my husband's a chef), so I will be alone until he gets home, and then it's movies and pajama time. Alone for dinner, too, so probably just sweet potato, chicken and avocado. Pity me, and my sad dinner plans.

    For the first time in ever, hubby and I both have to work tomorrow, so we won't be going out and partying our @$$es off. Which means dinner is just gonna be some random leftovers for him and a salad with tuna for me. I could make us fruit smoothies as a treat though. Bananas, strawberries, yogurt, splash of vanilla... hmmm.... yeah I think that's gonna be what we do.

    We always do lobster. I'm thinking broccoli and some red potatoes with rosemary and thyme sounds good. Happy New Year to everyone!!!

    So cool to see how everyone is different. We're going to have leftover cauliflower leek soup, grilled catfish, and broccoli I think. Very light (good thing, considering I had a 900 calories lunch).

    You guys made me hungry for kielbasa and sauerkraut though so that's going in the crockpot soon with some potatoes and beer.

    My husband and I were supposed to be in Boston tonight, but had to change our plans last minute. We will be having spaghetti with homemade meatballs, strawberry spinach salad and homemade garlic bread. I made gaucamole as an appetizer and chocolate chip cookies for dessert. Tomorrow is steak tips, baked potato and brocolli!
