At the beginning there were a dozen of us and we'd go out to a very nice dinner and then go back to one of our friend's apartments for dessert. Now there are just four of us -- time and tide -- and one of us is 95 and rarely goes out. We will be at her house with Chinese food and enjoy dear friendship and being together. Nothing fancy, but is there anything better than being with those you love?

For our anniversary tomorrow night, I've planned something similar to Beef Wellington but something more like a Beef Bourguignonne under puff pastry, using a recipe from BON APPETIT (2015).<br />Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10703744007789158830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-60002310730061018612017-12-27T05:56:53.851+00:002017-12-27T05:56:53.851+00:00It certainly is the season for feasting Jo!

So, Friday will be the salmon, Sunday will be the duck, and Monday (New Year's Day) will be our usual roast pork but using your recipe for ham for an interesting twist. Don't know about Saturday, yet, just something restful. Then along comes Epiphany and Dundee Cake. Isn't this season fun for feasting? I love to plan and cook like this.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10703744007789158830noreply@blogger.com
