Menu Plan: Fourth Week of Advent & Christmas

Well, the end of Advent is upon us. Our Advent has been much lower key this year, and our Christmas will be as well. Our normal rib roast for Christmas dinner is being replaced with a roast turkey, as we aren't butchering our steer until after Christmas. Our children are counting down the days to Christmas, we are trying to fit in all the last minute preparations. We still have several gifts to mail, our Christmas letter to get out and all the presents for the children wrapped. Thank God there are 12 days of Christmas!What is on your menu this week? If you want a recipe, ask and I will provide it as soon as I can. If there are any starred recipes, I will follow up separately with a weekly recipe round up on Saturday.

You have a delicious menu planned!
I'm so glad that my husband isn't working on Christmas Eve and Christmas. He really needs the days off.
