First time hosting Christmas Eve. Coming from a half Italian American family and marrying into a full one, this is a lot of pressure. Amongst other foods, we’re absolutely nailing the seafood menu albeit not the traditional 7 fishes:

King Crab
Snow Crab
Fried Calamari
Steamed and Chilled Clams
Mussels in a Fra Diavolo Sauce with Linguini
Shrimp Cocktail
Baked Cod

We have eggplant Parmesan for the vegetarian contingent

Pillsbury pre cut cook yourself cookie dough. Appetizer was a doobie.....most likely will be washed down with lots of water, a pizza, some blue cheese combos, red vines licorice and whatever else I can find.

Chilling and looking at the fridge. Going to make spaghetti pasta, some pan-fried chicken, a little chorizo, with sautéed tomatoes, and a bit of chimichurri. Why the F not?

edit: Meh. Works, but not special.

Made some Hawaiian sliders. Mayo on the bottom bun, then Gouda cheese, Black Forest ham, then a layer of brown sugar ham. Next was provolone cheese and shredded Gouda. Top buns got coated with blueberry jalapeno jam from Buc-ee’s. Coated with Melted butter and baked at 325 for 15 minutes. Turned out to be amazing.

I love sushi, but the idea of paying that much for a tuna is ridiculous.
