Are you stuffed yet Mike? Ready to be put into the oven? lol.
Happy Holidays my friend... or maybe not? I'm on a diet and just looking at your photo I gained 10 lbs.
(what's for desert?)
That looks soooo good!There's nothing like lechon asado y arroz con guandules
for Noche Buena.
Happy Holidays to you and your family!

I made a huge seafood paella tonight, with 7 fishes [Italian tradition] that was delicious. Made a pastelon of maduros and beef for the first time [recipe from Aunt Clara's Dominican cookbook] that was a big hit. Tray of arepita de yuca [one of my favorites], fresh avocado, etc., etc. Flan and bunches of different cookies for dessert. We opened our gifts tonight, been doing that for decades - got an iPad that I have to figure out. Daughter says "Ma, it's just a big iPhone". We'll see.
No photos, and leftovers went home with the kids.
Tomorrow I get a break, daughter and her husband are cooking.

glazed sweet potatoes with apples,stuffed shells with cheese,deviled
eggs.
For dessert an assortment of homemade cookies,cheese flan and ambrosia.
