Christmas Dinner Menu

All the beauties got together in November and made Christmas dinner. We started late and ate late, but had fabulous cocktails, multiple courses and the best company. There's nothing quite like a bunch of close girlfriends getting time to catch up. And thanks to Megan for making the long trip across the country to visit us.

Here's our menu and because we needed energy for our big night of cooking and eating we started with cold beer and ruffles dipped in Mexican sour cream. We'll link to each recipe as we post. And we'd love to hear what your favorite Christmas dinner dishes are.
