Merry Christmas Eve!

In my family, Christmas Eve is a very big deal. We had our dinner at 3pm. My parents made fish soup, with 7 kinds of fish. It was so good! It had crab, lobster, scallops, halibut, shrimp, mussels and clams. Maybe those aren't all technically fish, but whatever. They were all things that could have been in the cast of the Little Mermaid. :)

Two hours later, we gathered together to have the fancy dessert my mom bought from the fancy bakery. It was chocolate cake with a cream topping. My mom can't eat it because it has dairy, and my dad and I were too full to eat. So we all stood around my brother and asked him to tell us how it was. It was pretty funny.

My dad also started cooking for tomorrow. We're having "Tur-Duck-In" which is a turkey, stuffed with a duck, stuffed with a chicken. Apparetly, it's not very easy to handle, as illustrated by the picture below.
