Let the banners wave and the flags fly I have returned. Sounds like you had a good yule. Mine was nice. Had Christmas with family. My brother gave me a complete collection of Calvin and Hobbes. Had friends over for supper on Saturday night. We had S&B Cajun chicken in frying pan with steamed cauliflower and scalloped potatoes. Now my buddy want's to send his daughter over to learn to cook. The chicken was S&B, and the scalloped potatoes were from a box. His wife is not a very good cook if he is impressed by S&B and boxed potatoes. I baked a chocolate devil's food cake with a hot mocha sauce. I subbed the Becel 67%RSF marg for butter and oil and used the 80% reduced fat and cholesterol egg product in place of eggs. Not something to live on but a marginally exceptable dessert. Fruit cocktail, fat free yougurt with fruit and orange sorbet are ok but I need chocolate sometimes.
