we spent christmas eve at my in-laws' house as usual, enjoying the "feast of the 7 fishes" (take 2) that turned out to be more like 11. pretty typical of a meal at their place. last year, we had made it to probably "fish" #5 before we had given up, but this time i had a taste of everything.
 |
"appetizers".. pickled herring, octopus salad, sardines, smoked oysters, cocktail shrimp.. |
 |
fried oyster.. YUM.
|
 |
mussels in white wine! |
 |
mushrooms topped w/.. imitation crabmeat? actually it was whitefish made to look like crabmeat.
this was absolutely delicious. |
 |
i forget the name of the last 2, but they were good, of course.
one was prepared as a franchaise and the other in a hoison sauce. |
then we watched the giants game together and celebrated their win. yay! it's alot of fun to watch it together since my husband's family have been long-time giants fans.
 |
i love these little guys! |
afterwards, it was time to open presents, followed by more... food? dessert was served!
 |
my FIL's fruit arrangement. |
 |
and my MIL's cookie arrangement! |
so now you can see why i pretty much had to roll out of the house. and to all a good night!
