Isn't it cute?
For appetizers we had: Bread sticks, olives , Salmon roles with cream cheese
Cold cuts and cheese and
scrimps
then we had Lentils with sausages ,It is a italian tradition, we think they bring money for the new year, so i made every one eat some even if they did not care for Lentils .
Then my mom made meat roles with sauce , and pasta to , but forgot to take the picture, sorry and Saltin' Bocca alla romana , it is veal with hame and sage sprinkled with some flower and cooked in a little of oil , very good .Risotto with Mushroom and sausage , that i forgot to take the picture... with mashed potato and Corn.
But i have to say we had fun and eat like piggies , so the last thing I have to say to all of you , is
Buon 2009,
