When the Shazam! Breaks…You Know the Party’s Over

Filed under: Holiday — mlb @ 10:09 pm

My mom came to visit us and we had a very nice holiday. We ate a little fruitcake and a lot of pix and today, I knocked the leftover Shazam! over and broke it. That’s okay — it’s still tasty!

Here’s a picture of the holiday table featuring — Cornish Game Hens, Stuffing, Roasted Vegetables, Cranberry Relish and a Parsnip-Hazelnut-Sage Gratin. I’ll try to post the gratin recipe this weekend as it was so very good.

Let’s see — we also got a futon for my office/the guest room. I like it a lot so far and it looks a lot better than the hairballed, cat-stained, old, cheap couch that was there. Go figure…

Hope everyone had a great holiday!

    Hi Holly:

    It’s Henna #3A31-5 and it’s by Behr. If I remember correctly, we got it at Home Depot…

    Ok, I may have fallen off the face of the earth for the past 6 weeks, but I have to say “Damn, what’s a Shazam?

    And your table is beautiful!!!

    A shazam:

    “Rich and creamy caramel mousse, salted almonds, dense chocolate almond cake, and more caramel…Shazam”

    All in like a 5 inch tall chocolate tower. Mmmm…. :)
