First course: Salad with homemade Vinagrette dressing 色拉配香醋醬汁
Winter is here. Salad green is limited in the garden. Picked few and added some black olives. I made my own Vinagrette dressing. Salad was brought up on the table with no time at all.
冬天來了, 菜圓中做色拉的綠色蔬菜漸少. 隻找到了一些, 又加了一些黑橄欖. 做了香醋醬汁, 很快一盤色拉就擺上桌了.

Side dish: Oven roast Hubbard squash 配菜紅糖烤 Hubbard 南瓜
Home grown Hubbard squash is sweet and creamy. Cut into pieces and sprinkle a little brown sugar. Roast them in the oven made them so yummy and nutritional. They are very welcome in our family. Everyone liked them.
家裏菜園裏種的Hubbard squash又甜又麵。切成稍大一點的塊，撒上一點紅糖和一點奶油，放入烤箱中烤熟，又好吃又有營養。是我們家的家常菜，人人喜歡。

Bread: Homemade butter milk biscuits
麵包：家常快速奶油小麵包
With two new born babies, time is limited to get dinner ready. I had to give up our favorite homemade dinner rolls. In stead, I made butter milk biscuits. It is simple, easy, buttery, flakey and quick. Butter milk, butter, baking powder, salt and little sugar are the main ingredients. They were delicious.
忙著應酬兩個新生寶寶，做晚餐的時間很有限。我不得不放棄我家傳統的奶油晚餐麵包，用家常快速奶油小麵包取而代之，小麵包很簡單，鬆軟，奶油味很足，主要原料是butter milk, 奶油，發粉，鹽和一點糖。很好吃。

Main course: Roast Goose 主餐: 烤鵝
A goose pad dry using paper towels. Sprinkled with salt and pepper. Then rubbed with butter and olive oil. Roasted it in a pre heated oven at 325F for 2 hours. Increased oven temperature at 350F for another 30 minutes. During the first baking, brush honey and lite soy sauce mixture every 30 minutes.
一隻鵝洗淨,用紙拍幹, 撒上鹽和胡椒粉, 再抹上奶油,烤箱欲熱325F, 加好味道的鵝放入烤箱烤2小時, 每隔30分鍾用蜂蜜和生抽醬油混合液涮鵝的表麵. 然後烤箱溫度升至350F, 再烤30分鍾

This dessert is simple and easy to make. Apple pie is year round dessert. I added some cranberry and give it a twist. It turned out very good. It had the sweet from apple and had the tangy from cranberry.
The apple and cranberry pie before went into the oven.
這道甜點好吃又易做. 蘋果派一年四季都適合. 我來了個小變化, 加了一點cranberry. 效果還不錯,既有蘋果的清香, 香甜, 又有cranberry的一點tangy. 很棒.
