I don't plan to eat healthy at all on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. It is the ONLY time I just don't care. We sit around and snack and watch movies. Of course open gifts as well. What else will we do on Christmas Eve, not sure. Normally we go out to eat with the family and watch a movie in the theaters. I am not sure what we are going to do. The kids really enjoyed caroling last year but with an infant, not sure we will. What I DO know is what I am baking or will have served on Christmas. I am thinking I am going to have the kids not do school from the 17th to the 25th and just help with the house, the baking, and keeping Monkey busy so I can finish with the present prepping. Bullfrog is so far ahead in school, he is expected to finish at the beginning of March! Well, here is the menu *oh and several of the items are on my Pinterest
