      Merry Christmas everyone. Jack (the cat) let us sleep in until 8 AM to day, most days he wants us to feed him by 6:30. Another hour of sleep would have been nice, though.

      I think we're having sort of a brunch today, not sure if it will be before or after opening presents, that sort of depends on when everyone is up and hungry. We got some thick bacon at Just Good Meat in Omaha and still have a few bagels left, plus we bought a Racine kringle. Christmas dinner will be Steak Diane this evening, with trifle. (We wound up making a second trifle to use up all the ingredients, and had some of it as a late night snack.)

          I agree with Skeptic--the trifle looks wonderful.

          Merry Christmas everyone! Remember that there are twelve days of Christmas, so keep the celebrating.

          And to others, happy first night of Hanukkah!

            We had more of the trifle this evening, finishing off the one I posted the picture of and starting on the other one. It was better today because the ladyfingers had softened due to soaking up moisture from the pastry cream. That's why it is best to make it a day ahead.

                Happy Boxing Day everyone! We had a quiet couple of days and went to friends' house for brunch on Christmas - very nice. Leftover charcuterie for dinner last night and then again tonight with tomato soup. That was great after a busy day at work.
