Last evening, our Christmas dinner was unusual for us. It was delicious, just not our normal Christmas dinner. Before dinner we were served milk punch, made with milk, ice cream and bourbon, plus some seasonings. I drank two, they were so good.
For our main course we ate Grillades, served over Cheese Grits, and a green salad. Andrew cooked the grillades the day before and Katie fixed the cheese grits, which were superb. I never thought I would enjoy grits but these cheese grits are made with cream and are yummy. Our next course was a fresh fruit salad, made by Linda. And finally for dessert, Christina prepared bread pudding with a whiskey sauce with ice cream. The dinner was wonderful, not our regular Christmas dinner.
In Canada, with Thanksgiving in October servicing turkey, we often ate turkey again for Christmas. Our friends and relatives still serve turkey at Christmas. In the US, Ken and I served roast beef or lamb. But this year, we enjoyed the southern hospitality and thoroughly enjoyed our Mississippi meal, which was a first for us. It was delicious.
