Christmas leftovers and noodles with grated cheese. Definitely eating a lot of sweets and snacks, though.
Days after Christmas are confusing

Tomato basil soup with wild rice and respectable dashes of mixed habanero-Sri Racha sauces. Yeah, I’m all good. My meals don’t end just because the year ends.
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 10 months ago
do you do anything unusual with your tomato basil soup?

Lindt balls, Christmas cookies, and staying hydrated with beer or Dr Pepper.

I think at this point, by dry weight I am 20% ham, 20% mince pie, 20% cheese (mostly camembert and Wensleydale) 20% chocolate and 20% Christmas cake.

We’re only halfway through the Christmas ham. We’ll probably be done with it by NYE. Then all the ham at the grocery store will be half-price, and we’ll end up buying another one.

So much ham.
If price per meal is your thing… there are so many amazing things you can make with chicken thighs. To me they’re the lobster of chicken and people haven’t figured out how tender and delicious the things are, so the price is next to nothing lol

Ham at my local grocery store is usually $5. For 5 pounds of ham. Like year round. Sometimes loss leaders are wild

What do you mean? The 2 weeks surrounding Christmas are just cooking and eating. Meeting people to cook together, meeting people to eat together. Visiting distant parts of the family you only see once a year and eating together. Visiting friends you only see once a year and eating together. I mean, chocolate is good; but there’s way too many dishes you want to eat that you likely don’t have enough vacation days to prepare them all. Then it becomes a point of optimization and huge discussions regarding what to prepare for lunch and dinner, attempting to make it so that none of the 15 people at dinner had already had that dish in those days or were planning to have it on another day. This is clearly impossible and that is where the real importance and respect of a person amongst the group of people he’s meeting becomes evident as he will muster support towards the dishes he was proposing by parts of the other people.
Well, I’m cooking dinner tonight for a few people; respect is very high: in fact yesterday I just said I’d cook something and nobody actually asked what I’d cook. I don’t know yet what to cook. A couple days ago with one of the people in there I made risotto, I’d rather not repeat. I guess we could go for a pasta to keep it moderately simple as they work tomorrow morning and we don’t have much time, but I’ll accept suggestions.

Made turkey rice soup so basically am eating Christmas for another week. Delicious though.

Cheese, chutney, crackers, apples, and grapes for most meals.
LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 10 months ago
That sounds nice actually, I haven’t done any holidays foods yet this year. But also the temperature here is going wacky. It’s 23 outside right now, and tomorrow the high is 2. It’s changes like that which make us understand why tornados are common

Mmmm… Cheese chutney… 🤤
