John's son's hobby is gourmet cooking. He made an English Christmas Dinner. Huge roast, roasted potatoes (seasoned perfectly..I usually don't eat roasted potatoes but I was too starved to resist and wolfed them down without examining them), plum pudding, fresh green beans with (darn, I forgot), mushroom gravy, a triple chocolate tart with rasberry liquor in the recipe as well as a sauce, clementine oranges marinated in carmel sauce. Oh and ice cream and coffee and lots of wine. *Hiccups*

Appetizers were homemade bruccetta, a Greek mix (forgot what it's called) and marinated clams on the 1/2 shell.

Is John's son single?! (oh, and I guess over the age of 25 would be good, lol). Heck if he cooks like that, tell him you have a nice single friend who also enjoys gourmet cooking and baking in Allentown!!

No, Jenn, he isn't. The kitchen is sacred and nobody is allowed in while he's cooking. He's truly amazing. He makes Indian food, Mexican (chicken mole etc) Everything he does, as simple as it is, is delectable. Just the right spices and stuff. He's taught me alot so now I'm into experimenting. He bought me huge Italian and Mexican cookbooks for Christmas. Yummo! I recently made Mai Poh Tofu and it came out just like the restuarant's.

Oh well, I'd just use him for his cooking skills anyway, lol!!


Our dinner was subdued... just me, mom and dad. We had ham, baked potatoes, spinach with hot bacon dressing (a PA Dutch thing), broccoli normandy (broccoli, carrots and cauliflower w/ toasted bread cubes). We normally have sweet potatoes and rolls, but mom decided against adding more starch. For dessert we went to my brother's house, and took over coconut custard and shared that along with a ton of other desserts already there.

My sister in law's brother's girlfriend (I think I got that right..) made this bourbon chocolate mouse last night that was to die for!! I'm allergic to chocolate, but I ate some anyway! It was soooo chocolatey, soooo rich, it was just heaven. And she must have used half a bottle of bourbon, lol. Wow!!!
