A sneak peek of our Chinese New Year menus
It’s the eve of Chinese New Year and by now, I’m guessing everyone’s busy either preparing or preparing for their Reunion Dinner. Which basically it’s just the handful of us 
. No big deal, right? We don’t have to travel anywhere. We don’t have to book any tables. Reunion dinner or not, it’s just us pigging out at our dining table.
Sneak peek of our Reunion Dinner menu:
- Roast turkey, potatoes and carrots
- A simple salad
- Red wine
Yup, I snagged a frozen turkey the week after Christmas because my daughters were calling for an encore of our Christmas Dinner. So why not? There’s no big deal about going all traditional or anything. We just eat what we like and we happen to lurve our own, home roasted turkey.
Sneak peek of our Vegetarian First Day of the New Year:
- Homemade nachos topped with cheese, lettuce and salsa for both lunch and dinner
Sneak peek of our First Meal of the New Year on the 2nd day of Chinese New Year:
- I had planned to cook Shrimp Scampi Linguine but my aunt has very kindly offered to take over my kitchen, so it’ll be Chinese. We’ll have to see what she cooks up.
For the next 15 days, we’ll be avoiding Chinese restaurants like the plague. My friend started this tradition and we like it. So it’ll either be fast food, Vietnamese, Japanese or Western for a while.
Okay, I’m off to the kitchen to slave. Y’all have a good night and feel free to tell me what you’re eating.
