The New Years Feast

As far as I can tell, this was our eleventh year cooking the slow and so-Southern traditional new year’s feast.  I shared my invitation, free printables, recipes and party plans a few weeks back and boy did it ever feel good to have done all of that in advance.  All we did today was cook, watch football, play games and eat!

Sister’s Mister offered to cook the pork, so we ditched the one planned with blackberry sauce and went with his.  It was every bit as delish and saved me a whole bunch of time.  Incredibly, this pic of the PCP’s plate at the kids table was the only one I got tonight.  He was most fascinated by his impending wealth after eating all those greens :-) January 2014 002 
With that, I’m about to usurp the tele for the unveiling of the 2014 HGTV Dream Home!! xoxo

  1. Such a nice tradition you have – and a gorgeous table! We spent the day lounging in front of the TV – between football for the boys and HGTV for me, it was one lazy day – as it should be! Now we are getting ready for another snowstorm to hit tonight!

  2. Yum! Everything looks delicious. We spent a quiet night at home, unfortunately watching our Bears lose in their bowl game. Today is the day to take down that monster tree. Happy New Year!

  3. Wonderful southern tradition – we did the same thing yesterday and it was delish!

    The new HGTV home….OMG! It made me want to move to Palm Springs! The house is beautiful and the surroundings were even more gorgeous!

  4. Your table is beautiful. My daughter has a full set of the Currier and Ives dishes. Everything looks just wonderful- great tradition- xo Diana

  5. Love your table settings. Especially the plates in the close up pic. What is the name of the pattern with the blue oyster bowl on top? I'm looking for a setting that's fancy without too much color.

  6. The oyster bowls are beautiful and such a fun compliment to your place setting! I love reading your blog, you have such great taste!
