Holiday Feast

Well, I've decided on the Christmas Menu and have assembled my shopping list. I'm excited to make Roasted Beef Tenderloin this year...check out Rachel Ray's easy recipe here. I've made the Roasted Pepper sauce, but will skip it this time...very time consuming and not terrific. The tenderloin...to die for.


I'll serve Scalloped Potato Gratin (made with lots of fresh grated Parmean and heavy cream) as a side dish.

Other tasty items on the menu:Strawberry Spinach Salad, Glazed Baby Carrots, Home-made dinner rolls (courtesy of Brother Ben), Cranberry Chutney, Kringla (perfected by my Mom). The best part, though, is knowing that the people I really love will be sharing this meal with me in my home. Makes me feel all filled-up. :)
