Preparing for the holidays

Dear...

I love this time of the year, the start of the holiday season. We kick it off right after Halloween. Houses are getting decorated and in the malls you start hearing holiday music. Santa is doing his appearance in the TV commercials and I can't wait to see White Christmas again. Some people call it all cheap sentiment, but I simply love it all. The presents, the music, the decorations, the christmas story, the family connection and then of course the food. First we have Thanksgiving and then Christmas and New Year. I can already see the beautiful set tables and almost taste the copious meals that we are going to prepare and serve. It's of course all about the sharing but just think about the roasted turkeys, the honey glazed hams, the casseroles, the mashed potatoes, the cranberry sauce and then of course the pies: pecan pies, sweet potato pies, apple pies. The deliciousness is parading for almost two months in front of us.
We spend a lot of time thinking what to eat between Thanksgiving and New Year... Hummm now that I think about it, may be we should be more concerned about what we eat between New Year and Thanksgiving.
