What's going on with you all New Year's Eve / New Year's Day. Looking at another thread for a New Year's Eve party, I thought I better start thinking this direction too. I had to go back and look at what we did last year for NYE. DC threads have a better memory than I do. ( we had chix quesadillas and an afternoon movie, don't remember the movie. I'm sure we enjoyed it.)
New Year's Eve first-- An early dinner and movies and home well before midnight. We are not late night people.
This is what I think I will offer to make.
1) Rock Cornish game hens/ baby brussel sprouts, and ???
2) KL's carnitas enchiladas. If so, I need to go shopping manana so I can make carnitas on Wednesday in advance.
3) Snacky things. crackers cheese, sliced salamis, pesto, herring, lefse, some smoked fish deal, and if a main dish is wanted, I could make Swedish meatballs. Between our refrigerators, we would hardly need to go shopping.

4) When I mention enchiladas, Dx will probably offer up enchiladas suizas. She makes the best chicken enchiladas.
5) Other ideas she may have. Between us we will have a small feast, I'm sure.
New Year's Day. I'm hoping snacky things I think we are going to BIL's, the same who just hosted Christmas dinner. I am sure we will bring something. Otherwise, football/ snacks at home.
What have you got up your creative sleeves to celebrate the New Year ?
