Burtess Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 For those that are staying in tonight, what are you preparing for New Years Eve dinner? For a lot the tradition would be lobster and steak, but I am deathly allergic to shrimp, lobsters, and the like. We are having our good neighbours over and I am preparing grilled beef tenderloin, baked potato, and butternut squash.... What's everybody else having????

douG Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 Lobster (thx Roy - they were $6.99 a pound at Sobey's), a mushroom risotto, wilted spinach, some melted butter and garlic. I think there is still some homemade bread around here somewhere. And a bottle of Sigura Viudas Brut Reserve, a $15 bottle that beats the pants off $40 or $50 bottles.

Radnine Posted January 1, 2009 Report Share Posted January 1, 2009 Here is the photographic evidence. Just as the juniors game finished up, and with Will safely tucked in bed, Jen and I sat down to this light yet satisfying feast: Rack of lamb with red wine sauce , roasted garlic mashed potatoes, sautéed green beens and red pepper with roasted slivered almonds. It was super yummy. Best wishes to all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crappieperchhunter Posted January 1, 2009 Report Share Posted January 1, 2009 And a bottle of Sigura Viudas Brut Reserve, a $15 bottle that beats the pants off $40 or $50 bottles. bubbly with a 0 rating. you knowz your stuff. Debbe and I had a nice steak with our 2nd last Acorn squash from my garden prepared with carmalized shallots and a touch of brown sugar and some steamed broccoli with a light almond/garlic sauce. Served with a bottle or 2 of our Fav homemade red. Nothing fancy but a fitting ending to 2008. Happy 2009 to all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having never tried lamb, I am racking my brains trying to figure out a way to get an invite over for supper.

OhioFisherman Posted January 1, 2009 Report Share Posted January 1, 2009 LOL Dog------------------------------------------ bones for them. Wife and kids, sister in law, brother in law, nieces and nephews went` to the bowling alley for the annual Christmas party. I don`t walk well enough to consider bowling, hands shake too much to shoot pool, and certainly don`t need to drink. I get to hang out with my 4 legged friends!

bigugli Posted January 1, 2009 Report Share Posted January 1, 2009 (edited) Jen, douG, Radnine and solopaddler. I am so envious of you folks at the moment (insert drooling smiley). Such fine table offerings would be wasted in this household. Haute cuisine can only be a dinner for one. With almost every meal they smother the food in ketchup.
