Merry Christmas!

[Manekineko 200]

Since I'll probably be otherwise engaged the next couple of days, I take this opportunity to wish all Forum members Merry Christmas, or other related holidays.

Merry Christmas! (In a holiday mood...)

Screaming trees.

Seasonal greetings from here too. I'll be away for a week or so now, so I'm also wishing an early happy new year to everyone.

What kind of food do you eat in your countries at Christmas?

I can't speak for population in general, but here's a sample of my family's Christmas Eve dinner and Christmas Day lunch. Since Christmas Eve is a 'meatless' fast day in Catholic Church, the dinner is traditionaly fish and seafood. Traditionaly we're supposed to eat codfish, but my mom doesn't like it, and so we have other types of fish, all white-fleshed. For those who don't like picking their way through fish-bones, there's filled squid, and shelfish with rice or pasta. Due to already forgotten reasons, we always have tuna-pate as appetizer. Of course, (white) wine

flows freely.

Christmas lunch then consits of all the meat you couldn't eat the previous day. Turkey with a sort of gnocchi, or roast pork, veal or lamb also with gnocchi, with cooked ham as appetizer, and really too much of everything. And cakes on both days. In huge quantities. When I consider the ammount of food eaten by my (extended) family in the last two days, it's certainly enough to feed a mediocre heya. :D
