Happy Holidays!

Hi All,


It's that most wonderful time of the year.


As the hustle and bustle of the holiday season is all around us, I like to take a minute to remember all that is wonderful about this magical time of the year.


I love the time spent thinking about family and friends as I select gifts that I think they will appreciate.  It's a chance to reflect about all those we love and what a gift it truly is to be a part of each others lives.


Of coarse the Kitchen is the main event for the holidays at my home as I'm sure it is yours. This year I will be cooking for 15 people. On the menu is my famous pumpkin curry soup, leak and tomato tart and beat and blood orange salad. The main coarse is the annual beef crown roast.  My french mother's tradition when we came home from midnight mass was to celebrate with a bowl of homemade french onion soup, a glass of champagne and shucked oysters. I carry on this tradition. It's the best way to kick off the holiday.


And again this year, my favorite thing is to give gifts to my family that I love using myself. They always look forward to getting one of my MCM items for their kitchen. I thought it would be fun to list off some of my favorite gifts in the "12 Days of Christmas" format.
