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.
