I got a Christmas Pickle!!
Photo
For Christmas Eve dinner, as per our tradition, I made Engagement Chicken (recipe to come) and Mushy Pea-Tatoes with gravy and apple pie.
JORDAN’S MUSHY PEA-TATOES
What you need:
5 or 6 russet potatoes, peeled and cut into large chunks
In addition to our Helpful Christmas Present-Chewer (above left), Kendrick gave me these awesome, oversize Jadeite salt shakers (which I cooed over for awhile at the same antiques store where I bought these salt shakers for Meghan), subscriptions to Star and US Weekly (yessssss!!!), and Frrrozen Hot Chocolate mix from Serendipity 3.
I gave him a pair of professional-quality headphones, a lightning bolt pendant, a whole bunch of clothing, and Grand Theft Auto IV for his DS (last year’s Christmas present), and set up a special photo shoot with an incredible photographer so we can have a “couple portrait” while we’re still, you know, young and blossom-y.
If you’re running behind on your holiday tipping, no worries - anytime before New Year’s is fine.
