Happy New Year!

Yay! It's the return of the annual New Year's Day brunch! After a five year (!) hiatus we had a wonderful brunch with lots of new friends and relatives.
I served some delicious dishes - latkes made with yukon, russet & sweet poatoes (and carrots & sweet onions), challah french toast casserole with etrog marmalade. I couldn't get the marmalade to set when I made it so I kept adding pectin & sugar. Needless to say I had a heck of a time spreading it on the bread last night.
Evidently my new friends are not drinkers - have a ton of rum punch & bloody marys left .
Looking forward to continuing the tradition.
