Ambrosia:
Ingredients:
* 1 cup orange juice
* 3 medium oranges, peeled and sectioned
* 1 can (8 ounces) pineapple chunks, undrained
* 1/2 cup seedless red grapes, halved
* 1/2 cup shredded coconut
* 1/2 cup chopped pecans
Preparation:
Combine juice, orange sections, pineapple, and grapes, stirring gently to blend. Refrigerate until serving time. Fold in coconut and pecans just before serving.
This Ambrosia Recipe serves 6.
I make a sweeter version (almost like a dessert) with sour cream and either sugar or honey, and I substitute apples for pineapple since I don't really like pineapple.

Well, it's a skeleton crew. How much will they really be eating? Maybe set a bowl of calcium supplements on the side.
It sounds extremely delicious, all of it. In my family we're still trying to decide whose house to eat at. (There is some bickering going on, I'm not going to mention any names but the people know who they are.) Last year we were in the grocery store at 6 p.m. on Christmas Eve.

Many are the times I would rather have been at the Chinese restaurant with the Jews. But we I have to head straight home from the grocery and start cooking.
Well, makes is a strong word. It's more like I'm the only one who knows how to cook anything (and I'm no great cook). If I didn't do any cooking it would either be takeout, or catered.

Whenever I see the title of this thread, I think it says, "What do you do to serve Him?"
I like it when people mock her by grabbing armfuls and heaping all the food from a shelf to walk 1 foot across a room to the counter.

What kind?"
Chocolate meringue and grasshopper - you know, creme de menthe, and "white chocolate" in a chocolate crust.
For the chocolate meringue, we've always been attached to the recipe from the 1953 Better Homes and Gardens cookbook. It's like the one in the current Better Homes and Gardens cookbook, only with more butter and eggs! Mmmmmm!

I heard you Larry, scalping of a potato seems harsh to me.



Saw this thread and want to share my Grandma Minna's potato recipe. It tastes great with honey-basted ham.
For four people, bake five large russet potatoes. Refrigerate them overnight. Next day, sautee some chopped onion in olive oil. Peel and chop the potatoes and put them, along with the onions, in a medium-sized pot over medium heat. Add half a stick of butter - or whatever you use. Add a small can of condensed milk, one teaspoon of sugar, and enough milk to make a soupy consistency. Salt and pepper as much as you like. Heat almost to a boil, turn off the burner and let sit for 30 minutes; then re-heat and add more milk if necessary. Potatoes should stir easily.
You're immortal as long as someone remembers you; reads what you've written or what's been written about you - or makes one of your recipes.
Hooray! I loved reading Misha's updates to her holiday meal, even if I didn't have time to chime in. Glad everything went swimmingly.



It was fun to catch up on the whole thread just now, and Misha, I'm glad it went well!
Glad it went well, Misha. No surprise, I was in Whole Foods until closing on Christmas Eve. It wasn't that much of a madhouse. Weirdly, there are a lot of items Whole Foods doesn't stock.
