Our happy holidays!
Our family celebration for Christmas/birthdays/and New Years was such fun! I love it when we all can be together!
A few appetizers while we waited for the meal to be served.
Garnet bracelet salad is a layered potato salad that originated in Russia. Ours had layers of grated potatoes, carrots, eggs, beets, walnuts and mayonnaise, and was decorated with pomegranate seeds. It was as delicious as it was beautiful and festive.
The Russian word for pomegranate and garnet gemstone are the same – «гранат»
The Garnet Bracelet is a short novel by Russian writer Alexander Kurpin and is a tragic story of unrequited love.
I will be reading the book!
My son cooked our 24 pound turkey outdoors on the grill and did a marvelous job! It was moist and perfectly seasoned. We ended up getting a bit of snow the next day, so although it was cold, I was glad that it was dry out on the deck for grilling!
And birthday cake! It was a wonderful get together with the entire family.
I hope 2024 ends up being a good year for our world
