Holiday Feast: Wrap-Up

And there you have it! We ended the meal with espresso and a variety of holiday cookies, plus nuts (peanuts, cashews and chestnuts). The beef was amazingly tender, the Puddings did not burst into flames. A success all around!

The only downside was a variety of illnesses that have been in the family. As a result, instead of the large number of guests we expected, we only had...one guest. So we made up plates and sent them back to various sick houses!
