細雨 Continous Mist
Beatiful life with beatiful mind!
和往年一樣，進入12月份小朋友們開始了聖誕節倒計時，每天打開一個小窗口，伴著甜甜的巧克力興奮地告訴我們還有幾天就是聖誕節了！昨天小朋友們打開了他們日曆上12月24日的小窗口，興奮地告訴我們那個盼望已久的一天就是今天。。。
2017 Christmas counting down...
Few years back on a business trip to Germany, I saw some beautiful Christmas calendars and brought them back. Kids love them so much. Then the new tradition started. They have to have the Christmas calendar in December... Now they don't just enjoy the smooth, milky chocolate; they tell us how many days left until the big day. They opened 24th day, took out the chocolate, and told us that the big day would be tomorrow! They were so excited...
我家的傳統是聖誕除夕夜吃團圓飯，今年也不例外，晚餐很簡單，在著名的local店買了一隻剛剛熏好的火腿，配些配菜，溫馨的晚餐開始了。。。
Christmas is a family holiday. Our traditional dinner is on Christmas Eve. Keep simple and sweet is a goal in our family.
色拉配家做的ranch醬汁, Veggi Salad with homemade ranch dressing, nothing fancy...
我家必須的冷盤 Our family must have ----- Cold dish: hard Salami, Blu cheese, cranberry, grapes, etc....
冷盤是我們一天的零食，隨時添加，喝酒的和不喝酒的都喜歡。。。It is our all day snack. It doesn't matter how much I make. It is always gone by the end of the day with or without drink...
土豆泥: 最為簡單的萬能配餐。吃不完的話第二天早餐改煎土豆餅，一定都消滅光
Mash potatoes: I love to make this because the left over will become fried potatoes in the next morning...
培根包四季豆：我家最愛之一，包好噴上油，扔入烤箱就好，再簡單不過了。。。
One of our favorate side dish: bacon wrapped green bean. Simple and delicious.
Another pictures...
晚餐麵包：麵是通常的奶油麵包方，從新造個型，人見人愛。。。
Our dinner rolls: Same recipe every time. Different shape...
除了新造型外還要有古典的晚餐麵包型，有人指定要的，一成不變的性格不可擋。。。
Make some in traditional shape in the back of the picture... Someone in our family wanted the same shape of rolls, never change!
火腿從城裏媽媽爸爸店裏買的，不是超市買的，味道不同就是不同！
Honey baked ham from our famous local store, not national chain store....
聖誕節怎麽會沒有甜點，最後的一道是甜點。給小朋友們做了櫻桃派，今年有人想吃古老的Mincemeat pie. 今年時間有限，沒有機會自己做派餡，買了罐頭裝的餡，明年自己再做。。。Last course, the desert. How can we miss the desert! Mincemeat pie... Someone in our family demanded this pie every year. I had to make cherry pie for the kids since they don't quiet take the mincemeat pie yet. One of these days...
2017年前的這一天，平靜的夜晚，伴隨著許多人的祈禱，他誕生了，時光流逝，幾千年飛去，許多人從未忘記和平的代價，還在不懈的努力，望天下人共勉互助，共享和平，Merry Christmas!
