Christmas Eve 2008
I cooked the Pasta and Mama did the rest of the cooking, not our usual routine but I am quite pleased on how it went, I could have done a better job with the cooking but I was more than happy to grab 4 opps on Christmas day because Mama was energetic to do it all herself.
I prepared the Pasta and sauce and marinated all the meat that afternoon, then Mama took over the kitchen after our afternoon nap.
Our Christmas Eve Menu
Ceasar Salad
Pasta in tomato sauce and chicken/ bacon cordon blue for meat balls
Baby back ribs(came out really tender and ribs perfection)
T-bone Steak
Spicy buttered prawns
Ham and Edam Cheese ball
Leche Flan
Fruit Salad
Tiramisu
Hot Chocolate with grated chocolate (yummy!!!!!)
Pritson (see the pigs head)
Other half of the menu that I didn't bother cook( we will just save it for New Year's Eve)
Chicken and Mushroom soup
Grilled Salmon
Chocolate Fountain
I already told little J that she has too sleep early so that she will be awake by 12 midnight but the very forgiving, spoiler grandmom told her that she doesn't have to sleep. So the result, a very cranky sleepy little J at midnight. She was sleeping the whole midnight mass at UST, that's why we didn't have pictures there. She was sleeping while we had our Noche Buena, that's why I didn't get to eat at all but drink the hot choco, she was sleeping right on top of my tummy the whole dinner
time. She was still very sleepy, while we open gifts that's why she didn't get to appreciate the pink Kitchen set. I really wanted to tell my mom "See I told you so!" It was a disaster Christmas Eve for little J, but we all had fun watching her. 
I'll post more about our Holidays soon. Post Assignments!
