Every year my family has the tradition of getting together and enjoying awesome cuisine the sunday before christmas. This is a chance for us to spend days in the kitchen creating epicurean delights for our siblings to enjoy. Catherine spent hours and hours working on her Hazlenut mousse cake (cooked entirely from scratch)
, mom and dad made filet mignon with crab oscar and bernaise sauce (one of those dishes with really tricky timing),
we picked the cheese course (Dad picked out the cheeses and we set them out in a delicate fashion. (note- Melissa made the pretty tags for the cheeses.)
This year was different becuase we had Uncle Jeff and Aunt Kara and counsins over to enjoy the meal with us. Patrick mom and I decorated for the meal. It turned out to be an awesome meal.
Afterwards, we all gathered around the projector screen and played ROCK BAND. Its my dad's game. It is so cool because unlike other video games everyone can play together. We played for hours. Patrick got an awesome shot of dad and Jeff. (here dad is playing lead guitar and Jeff is on the drums.
