Christmas Eve with the Slednecks

Looks amazing... especially those clams & lasagna... Just need a loaf of Italian Bread to clean everything up at the end.... I'm hungry...

awesome spread, wish I was Italian

Hey Steve we always have a ham but this year my parents went with lasagna to it was a great choice we did have some Italian bread to clean the plate.LOL

Looks great. We do the same here at home. Me, being the neathen Baptist that I am, never heard of such a thing until I met and married my Catholic wife. They call the the feast of 7 fishes, but since me and my MIL are both Protestant, we only do 5 fishes.

Today though we're having baked Ham. I was oncall and working the past 36 hours off and on so Smoking was out of the question. On top of todays stormy weather thats coming through Florida. I might have to go tie down my equipment to keep it from bloing away.

The 7 fish tradition is a sicilian thing, we just do any type of seafood and pasta although we did make fried chicken cutlets for the kids(shhhhh) we also do baccala for lunch(dried cod in a soup that stinks like hell)

Can't smell any worse than lutefisk.

Nice spread. Looks like the family had a good time.

Steve, good to see that you and your family are not going hungry.:mrgreen:
That is one terrific looking spread.

Merry Christmas to you and yours.

Awesome looking spread. Does FedEx work on Christmas?

Great looking spread Steve.

The freast of the 7 fishes has been a tradition that my family observes every year. It;s great to have them around the table enjoying a good meal.

I spent a fair amout of time in Triesta Italy which is right next to Croatia.
The food in the area is an interesting blend of the two cultures.

Great looking spread there. I'm just an old country boy so thanks for teaching me about that Feast of Seven Fishes. Never heard of it before but sounds like a real good time.

I didnt see any sweet lucy or any slivo (sp?) out.... or does that come later? :shock:

We have alot of Kovacs, Supicas, Andresovics, etc. around us.... and between the wives' Povatica, and the husband's wine stashes... a few of us crazy Germans end up drunk, fat, and happy for the holidays.:twisted:

Great looking spread on the table!!

Wow what a spread and a fine looking family.
