NYE we are going to a party at the local bar inside the walls of the Marina. It's a blast.

NYD we are going out to eat at an Italian place (Carmelo's) in town. We will split this and a pasta dish.





01/02 is a relax day.

01/03 is my birthday - dinner at my favorite.

The Perfect Caper – Punta Gorda, FL

01/04 is packing.

01/05 is leaving for Cabo.

Gotta mix in some boating too.


Happy Birthday Badge! ( yes- little early)

Christmas Eve is at my folks' house.  BBQ pork tenderloin with cranberry-orange mustard chutney, twiced bake potatoes, creamed spinach, yeast rolls, black forest pie aka supreme surpise for dessert.  It's an "away" year for all of my nephews and their families plus my sister's in Colordado with her boyfriend's family,  so it'll be light attendance, just 5 adults and 3 teenagers.

Christmas morning breakfast at my inlaws, spiral cut honey glazed ham, egg casserole, hash brown casserole, croissants from a local French bakery with strawberry butter.

Christmas afternoon/lunch back at my parents' house, this will be basically a redux from Thanksgiving.  Fried turkey, cornbread dressing, green bean casserole, sausage-cheese grits, dinner rolls, pumpkin pie.

NYE is camping, so it's steak au poivre grilled over mesquite coals, baked potato, asparagus, and blueberry cobbler in the Lodge Dutch oven over a campfire.

NYD is my camping friends' jambalaya, gumbo, blackeyed peas, and whatever desserts are sill around.

I'm out on anything where people are pulling utensils out of their mouths and inserting them into a communal pot.

I recall when fondue was kind of a rage.  My wife still talks about going to the Melting Pot, a place I found ... meh.

You've always struck me as more of an ascot type.

Or perhaps a cravat.
