Christmas Dinner in details...
>> Monday, December 28, 2009
Starter was a salad of fresh greens with vinegrette, walnuts and grapes. The ham rolls had yummy apple salad inside. The sweet and salty combo was just the thing to get our apetite going!Next came my Tom Ka Kai soup. I was really glad with how it turned out, I'll
put up the recipe later. It was a bit spicier then perhaps expected by the 'general public' as to my horror I heard some people totally started caughing. But I think once they realized that it's stuff for a serious palette they toughened up whiped their tears and ate it.

But I think once they realized that it's stuff for a serious palette they toughened up whiped their tears and ate it. Main course was done by the hosts. Duck brest with fluffy potatoes, green beens and marinated zucchini, with a chutney of mango, pinaple and peach. Delishious enough to lick your little fingers!
Miele, Vito's lovely cousin, made the desert. Crumble apple pie with cinnamon ice cream!! Yes indeed it was that exciting. I for one, never seen cinnamon ice cream in the US. Perhaps PR/Marketing people have decided that Americans associate cinnamon with warmth and would not like it in an ice cream. Those PR/Marketing people, how dare them decide our lives!?
Anyway and there you have it, our Christmas Dinner on the farm.
Once upon a christmas.

Lovely Christmas at Vito's Aunt's and Uncle's house. There was snow, cute babies with chubby cheeks, many course dinner, and heated board game competition...

The "Holiday Program"
>> Wednesday, December 23, 2009
This year's christmas line up:
1. Dinner on a farm with the aunt, uncle and the cousins. All of us are bringing a course, I'm making Tom Ka Kai soup.
2. Christmas concert in a beautiful old church in which Vito's dad will sing.
3. Annual Christmas dinner with "Sea wolf". Sea wolf is Vito's dad's friend who just has a look of an old sailor, though he has absolutely nothing to do with sailing...
4. My friend Kaya is coming to visit with her brand new husband! (Brand new because I have never met him. They met AND got married all within the last 2 and a half years that I was already in the Netherlands). I'm super excited.
I love holidays!
