My Mom got such a kick out of it--chicken being such ordinary fare. I can't even think of turkey after Thanksgiving. Now we've been doing "Christmas Beast" (like out of the Grinch.) It's an Roast beef eye/tenderloin roast. So now my family laughed when I tell them we are having "roasted beast" for Christmas feast. For New Year's we'll have a pork roast (for luck for the new year) and Eastertime we usually have ham. I think turkey and ham get "done to death" for the holidays and I like to change things up a bit. Traditional Italians have the 7 Fishes Dinner for Christmas Eve--that's a pretty neat tradition.Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03811248342774185888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1869681811905925026.post-60778694202637858322010-12-27T12:08:55.677-06:002010-12-27T12:08:55.677-06:00We almost started a Hibachi tradition, but I was t...We almost started a Hibachi tradition, but I was too worried about the roads to take Kira out. For some reason, Ben and I are both getting tired of the traditional holiday meal. After family (blood and chosen) Thanksgiving and Christmas celebrations, we've pretty much had enough turkey. Kira may grow up thinking Asian food is the traditional Christmas feast.

I think it's excellent to create your own traditions sometimes. :)Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18126322605941017314noreply@blogger.com
