oops! I meant basil, though spinach might work as well.

I also meant to comment on the wonderful table decorations – I think I may have to “borrow” the idea of using nutcrackers next year. I’m always looking for new places to have them stand guard and the table is a natural.

Thank you for such a delightful glimpse into your home and your holiday, Dana.

I was raised Greek Orthodox, my husband Catholic, we both evolved evangelically over the years, have an ordained daughter and a niece with a Jewish family, to illustrate our truly American family. I love the blending of traditions and the richness it brings to life, especially in this season, and commend you for your thoughtful, and tasty, approach to it all.

The eggnog poundcake in your next blog looks like it may have to find a way to our celebrations, but, first the spinach and tortellini appetizers is scheduled to make an appearance at a baby shower in a few weeks.

Beautiful! Happy holidays to you and your family! Our Christmas dinner ended up having fruitcake (we also hit that Christmas eve, but a fruitcake lasts a LONG time), a Buche de Noel, steamed pudding AND cheesecake because we are also insane. And there were leftover mince pies from Christmas eve.

We celebrate Christmas and Hanukkah, and it’s so nice to be able to share in all holidays!
Love the table setting and the nutcracker boy.
Happy Merry!
