Just like last year we will be spending Christmas in Morelia with Goose’s family, so this year in order to have a celebration of our own, we decided to host an early Christmas dinner with a few friends and Goose’s parents.

I figured why not try a few recipes for the first time (something that most people think is a bad decision since you never know how it will come out). The menu consisted of potatoes au gratin, spinach & ricotta lasagna, glazed ham, thinly sliced turkey and an incredible made-from-scrath “Death by Chocolate” cake with freshly made cranberry-pommegranate jam, covered with more chocolate and sprinkled with pomegranate seeds.

Every dish turned out incredible and I couldn’t have been any happier :)
