The Clock Is Ticking For New Years Food Traditons
I did it again. Too much food was cooked for the Christmas holiday and now large parts portions have been put away into the freezer. Now another holiday is coming and more food will be cooked. New Years food are different for each of us as we celebrate the holiday differently. I spent many years going out to dinner and then going to a movie. Now I go skiing the the week before and sometimes eat out and some years have friends up and we grill steaks for New Year's Eve. But the one consistent thing has been how I celebrate New Year's Day. I watch football. I am like many of the thousands of people that start the day watching the Rose Parade and then go on to watch football. Being a Ohio State grad, I have more interest in this years game but then I was raised in Cincinnati so I will be watching that game too. Watching football means munchies and sandwiches. That is my tradition for New Year's Day. Sandwiches or hoggies are a great way to each while watching the game. You build platers of food that can be made up while watching with out loosing a single play. Some years I make potato salad and some years I buy the potato salad and cole slaw when I purchase the cold cuts for the sandwiches.
My parents went out for dinner and dancing New Year's Eve. But some how I remember my mother saying that herring was a German a food for the New Years. I am sure that what ever culture your family maybe, there is a food that is attached to that. You may want to include those foods in a family recipe cookbook. It is a prefect place to talk about how your family has celebrated the holiday and give some recipes.
I do want to create a cookbook for just left overs. You know I harp on having a theme for your cookbook so that it will get used and my new theme after the holiday cookie cookbook will be a cookbook for left overs.
If you want to share some left over recipes with me and my readers we would love and if you want to share some New Year's traditions that would be great too. My wish is that you have a great holiday and an amazing 2010.
