Awaiting my guests for our Chanukah party. It's a pot luck and I volunteered to host this year. Usually we do a simple dairy dinner, no main dish, except maybe tuna fish or salmon salad, but it's gotten out of hand.
DH made latkes all morning and is now reheating them. When I got home from seeing clients, my house smelled like oil! I asked one person to make a salmon salad and I just read on Facebook she made poached salmon and verte sauce... sigh, guess which friend this is?
Then my friend who is making a really good kugel (noodle pudding) volunteered to bring sliced roast chicken that she happened to have in the freezer. We are rounding out the meal with bagels, cream cheese, salad, and of course, the latkes with applesauce and sour cream.
I made sour cream chocolate chip cake and brownies, as well as buying an apple crumble pie at Idylwilde Farms, and ice cream.
