Holiday Recipe Roundup: (Don't) Bring Us Some Figgy Pudding
The holiday season can feel like the Super Bowl of food. The main event for the year. There are just so many sweets, meals, and parties, and rarely is there one I just can’t stand. I don’t even really know if that is a popular opinion or not, but I never hear anyone saying how much they can’t stand Christmas dinner (you know like they do Thanksgiving). I was honestly surprised to find out many people change up their menus year after year. I think growing up we only tried that once and it was met with so much resistance it never happened again. A real shut up and play the hits situation and to this day the hits remain.
That said, Christmas was my dad’s thing and I truly loved getting to see the man my dad became during the holiday season. This year it just kind of feels empty and not really the same so I kind of do want to change things up - at least for this year. And even if I don’t end up changing things up, just freaking look how delicious all of these dishes, desserts, and cocktails look? Try not to be in a festive mood looking at these. I think so many of these would be great for parties, gatherings, and the main event.
