Will be doing Christmas at an Aunt's in N.O. One of her sons will be roasting a turkey with oyster dressing for a main course, an I am bringing an 8lb standing rib roast as the second choice. I wanted to do a Yorkshire pudding to accompany the rib roast, but it is just seems too filling with all of the meat available. The sides will be some grilled asperagas, mashed potatoes and roasted Brussel sprouts. My Aunt typically makes a fancy salad of some sort. Dessert is going to be a white chocolate bread pudding, carrot cake and/or fruit and cheese.

The traditional family Christmas Eve dinner has been split into two events due to size constraints. I had a choice of Brother's house or Son's house. I went Brother last year. Going Son this year.

The menu will have lots of traditional Mexican food since my DIL's extended family is coming up from Mexico and her Mamacita is a great cook.
