Our Christmas tradition has always been a big Christmas Eve dinner and then a relaxed Christmas day brunch in your pj's. This year, we are trying out something a little different for Christmas Eve dinner- my mom, sister and I decided that we are sort of over the turkey and sides (had it already twice in the past two weeks), so we are doing homemade Chinese! I couldn't be more excited! I am in charge of the dumplings, friend rice (making from scratch eeee), edamame, and crab rangoon. My sister (the culinary school graduate) is in charge of the homemade egg rolls or spring rolls or something and that delicious ginger salad like shogun. Mom is in charge of the main dishes (beef broccoli, sweet/sour chicken), and matt's bringing the saki of course! He may not get to partake as the road scenario with the so called snow should arrive around dinner time, hurrying him on to Fort Smith. But I sure will!!

I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas with family or friends. I am ready for all the hub bub to start, then on to Matt's 30th Birthday next week!! So much to celebrate!
Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!!
