Stuffed clams, fried cod (1/2 was done with tempura batter and 1/2 was done with flour & cornmeal dredge), steamed Brussels sprouts and tater tots served with malt vinegar, hot sauce, lemon and homemade tartar sauce.

Even the kitty enjoyed the cod and tartar sauce. LOL
 
Nice Christmas Eve dinner Peeps.
We ordered in pizza (chicken/bacon/ranch)

My son and granddaughter surprised the crap out of me and showed up where I work.
They are spending the night at my ex's place and having Christmas there tomorrow early morning, then they're coming to pick me up sometime tomorrow afternoon - we'll go to my sister and BIL's for Christmas.
Her church members will be bringing in food.
Very nice of them.

And here's our little Alexa making everyone's Christmas special. Yep, she's walking all by herself. When she falls down she just gets right back up to walk, and has abandoned crawling except for doing the steps (with help, of course).

Here she is last night with Mommy & Daddy at the SIL's log house in the country...

and one of her favorite places to be...perched on Grandma's shoulder. When she gets tired and a little cranky, she only wants grandma to comfort her (and Grandma just eats that up!).

More pics after today's food fest at our house. Going to church with DW before the crew gets here for brunch...pancakes, waffles and sausage. DS will get here while we're at church to get the batters going.

Great looking food and beautiful family Joe.

My wife and I have decided to do this Christmas alone which is probably the first time we ever have in all the years married.

At any rate since it was just going to be me and here I picked up two 2lb Maine live lobster which I will steam. I will serve that with a salad and corn on the cob. I have also boiled up a dozen eggs for deviled eggs myself but then I can eat a dozen deviled eggs myself in the course of a day. :wink:
 
Wife is real tired today so she told me to cook whatever I want. Smoked sausage and long grain wild rice is on the stove for an early lunch since I skipped breakfast for a change. Slept in a little this morning.:clap:

Waiting on the home made lasagna that has been teasing my nose for too long.:hammer::hammer: Been quite a few years since she has made that.:clap::clap::clap:
 
I did start her day with a massage in the hot tub and waited in the car at 3 places without beeping the horn while she yakked to other women.:brows::yum:
 
Don't be, I'm going to have another one tomorrow for lunch, but go a little lighter on the cream cheese.. I think that was the problem lol
 
i got mall food after exchanging some gifts- i really, really dislike mall food, though there was bag after bag of gifts & my other stuff to contend w/ & organize, put on hangers, etc. sigh.
lollie, your sammich looks much better than my cut of pizza & chix. muleman, your lasagne sounds really good, too.
 
It was really great. Was just looking at the pan in the fridge and thinking about heating some up. We have take some to the old neighbor lady tomorrow and the wife wants to vac seal some for the freezer for quick meals. We only ate about 1/5 of it tonight. She made it with 5 cheeses and our burger and homemade sauce. You can't buy anything that good at a restaurant.:clap::clap::clap:
 
Thanks, Aubreylee oh and Bill, hmmm lasagne.. I might just have to make some of my 8x8 pan version tomorrow.
It's good to put back for leftovers too.
 
8X8 is a tease. She made it in the biggest caserole dish we have. Must be at least 12X26. I had to clear a whole shelf in the fridge for it.That lasagna must have cost me at least $12 just for the cheese. It is worth it.:brows:
 
You should have seen the crowd of cats and dogs at my feet. They smelled it cooking just like me and wanted a sample. I did scrape my plate over some dog food but there was not much to scrape. I did give the old tom cat one small piece of meat. He actually nipped my finger he was so anxious to get it.:yum::yum:
