4th Annual Holiday Party





Well it's been a long time since our last "Dinner on 12th". We did quite a bit of traveling this fall which resulted in our having to put of dinner parties on hold. But we're back for the holidays with our annual holiday party. Here's what I'm planning on making for the get-together this weekend...

Crostini of triple cream and fried sage

Goat cheese and Marionberry-pepper jam canapes

Madras spiced cashews

Roasted vegetable and goat cheese wellingtons with red pepper coulis

Crudités with edamamme hummus

Endive “spoons” of mache, pomegranates, gorgonzola and candied pecans

Deviled eggs with crispy capers

Curried winter squash bisque with a trio of condiments (Cranberry-apply chutney, Garlic croutons, or chive sour cream)

Rustic French apple tart

Toffee mascarpone bars

Oatmeal caramelitas

Debbie's amazing caramel brownie bites

Peppermint chocolate cookie truffles


We are really looking forward to sharing the evening with friends. And to those who couldn't make it this year, happy holidays to you all.
