CHRISTMAS PASTA
We eat fish on Christmas Eve, no meat allowed. After Midnight Mass, all bets are off! We make this sauce for Christmas Day: you can't fit another meat in the pot! As many times as you reheat it, it just gets that much better, so if people are coming and going throughout the day, cook off only as much pasta as you need at the time -- half a pound for every 3 people. The sauce will cover up to 2 pounds of pasta. If you are making this full menu, prepare the fudge and chill while your sauce simmers and before you prepare your salad. When you are done eating your 30 minute meal, the fudge will have chilled for 45 minutes and will then be firm enough to slice. Happy Holidays and Merry Eating!

Steps:

- Chop carrot, celery, and onions near the stove and add to the pot as you work. Cook vegetables with meat 5 minutes and add wine. Cook for 1 minute; add stock and tomatoes to the pot.

CHRISTMAS SPAGHETTI PIE
One Christmas, like so many unfortunately, we were extremely pressed for money and still hadn't bought presents for the extended family. I went waaaay out on limb with this one and it was by far the most welcomed gift of the season to many - not to mention a whole lot of fun to put together and deliver. I went to the grocery store and got a bunch of free cardboard boxes (the best are the boxes that the egg cartons come in because they have handles) and I went to the dollar store to get some towels to place inside of the boxes. My kids "wrapped" the outside of the boxes in wrapping paper and I placed the spaghetti pie (cooked in disposable pie plates) on top of the towels, to keep warm, inside the boxes along with some garlic bread, a bottle of inexpensive wine, some brownies and a hand picked $5 dvd from walmart. We then delivered the piping hot packages a few days after the holidays when everyone needed a break from cooking and entertaining. It was so much fun and so well received that I can't believe I haven't done it every year since...
