Food this Christmas ->
Christmas Dinner #1 at my parent's house on Dec 25.
I made the prime rib roast with the 500 degree oven method.

It came out a nice medium-medium rare :)

500 Degree Method = Medium Rare. |
My dad cubed up the roast at Ben's request. It was actually a good idea, as it made it easy to eat with rice bowls. We also had Chinese greens, tofu soup, mushrooms, and mix veggies (mini-potatoes, carrots, brussel sprouts, king oyster mushrooms, and red onions).

Christmas Dinner #1. |
Desserts: lemoncello frutti de bosco cake (from Montreal), rice crispies (made by Susanna), snowball cookies, and mini cup pastries (from Costco).

One of the mini cup pastries was a lemoncello flavour. It was disgusting. Tasted like Lemon Pledge! Actually most of those cups were not good. The chocolate one was tolerable.
Christmas Dinner #2 at my cousin's house on Dec 29. We had this Christmas later because some people couldn't make it for our usual Dec 24 Christmas party.
I prepared sushi. I prepared 10 rolls with a mix of salmon, avocado, cucumber, and egg.

Lots of appetizers: sushi, smoke salmon, bacon wrapped water-chestnuts, Peking duck wraps, pate, and Chinese meat pastries.

Useless Ugly Sweater News:
We had a fun Christmas party at Anthony's place before Christmas. (Anthony: you need to have it earlier next year.)
