I had to link it because the thumb wasn't working (I think the dimensions of that particular pic don't resize well enough for the thumb powers that be). Quotes + spoiler bars + autoresized images create madness, the page will start stretching and stuff. Worry not, we'll have the full pic in view when it comes to judging. :)

Comments: It's going to be a pretty lonely Christmas and Christmas eve for me this year, so I made some bolognese with spinach fettuccine for dinner as a personal celebration! I don't made these too often, as the ingredients can get a little costly here, but it was very worth it. Made some chicken meatballs to go with it too. It was delicious! [drool]

Comments: Sausage and Olive stuffing, a recipe my family has been making for decades. It uses boxed stuffing, to begin with, but the olives and sausages elevate it above just boxed mix.

@lex: I'd like to think it does!

Comments: Caraway cookies, made from this historical recipe. They turned out a little bit crispy, and with a light, mildly sweet flavor. They make nice cookies, but they could also be a nice savory snack with slices of cheese or other savory toppings. [yes] They went over well with our dinner guests last night, which was gratifying.

I made something to drink!

Comments: Mulled White Wine. Instead of the traditional mulled red wine with cloves and such, I went with this. This recipe called for white wine, peach juice, lemon slices, ginger slices, cinnamon, and honey. My brother said it tasted like he was drinking a pastry. [lol]

Comments: a dish that rarely needs introduction, the Peking duck; an arduous process of drying, separating, and candying makes the dish known for its savory meat and crispy skin
