Gearing up for Christmas Eve

For the past few years, I’ve had a party on Christmas Eve featuring all of my dear friends that are home for the holidays. This year, that concept has been extended to include a big dinner for our families and whoever else would like to come enjoy a ridiculously oversized meal with no theme whatsoever. I mean, besides “Deliciousness.”

I’ll be making:

Broiled Green Beans with Slow-Roasted Cherry Tomatoes (recipe here, along with tons of other fantastic-ness for a vegan Thanksgiving)

Brussels Sprouts with Orange and Chili (Recipe here!)

Potatoes Au Gratin (I’ll be more or less flying by wire on this one, but just for Brian I’ll try to keep better track of amounts and procedures.)

Coconut Shrimp

I’ll be photographing all the pescatarian goodness as it happens, and hopefully will get a post up either on Christmas day or the day after. Merry merry, enjoy all the time spent with friends and family… The holidays are precious for that if for no other reason.
