I’m Glad The Holidays Are Over

Jan 4th, 2009No Comments

I love getting together with family and eating but i’m glad things are quiet now so I can shed this unwanted holiday weight. My family really puts a new meaning on eating when it comes to the holidays. It’s a solid month of just pigging out and enjoying anything and everything.

Lets take a look at some of our Christmas traditions:

Beat Soup:

For all of you who have never had beat soup it is the most amazing thing. Aside from its fun color the taste will leave you wanting more. I have had many friends over for our Christmas dinners and they first look at the soup they are very skeptical. Now they haunt my mom for the recipe.

Homemade Cheesecake:

This is no surprise but homemade cheesecake just tastes much better than store bought. Actually home made anything is better than store bought. Especially during the holidays.

Cornish Hens:


For all the vegetarians who might read this I am truly sorry but these little muffins are so tasty. I am an animal lover so I am very sorry but they make a great meal. This is a new tradition that has started at my family’s house for the holidays and it is great. Did I mention the entire meal is cooked by person! You can all guess who that might be.
