Happy Anniversary @Shelbyand your Ronnie!
And Happy New Year, everyone!
Had most of our family (-3), my 85 year old brother and s-i-l, join us for a second Christmas, NY, and early celebration for my hubby's upcoming 80th. bday!
Had snacks and present opening in the afternoon, mostly sweet plus my sil's curry beef in short pastry:
I had made a kitchen schedule for myself and stuck to it. Cooked veg sides early in the morning then reheated. Followed by 2 doz Yorkshire puddings, reheated just before sitting down, then the 4-rib prime roast (Montreal steak spice) and a 5 lb tenderloin (rosemary, garlic, butter rub).
Vietnamese Summer Rolls
Carrot casserole that I kinda scorched the breadcrumbs when I turned on air-fry instead of air roast. Easily salvaged by brushing off the burnt crumbs
Green bean Butternut squash, cranberries, pecan with maple syrup and lemon juice dressing. Supposed to salad, but I served it warm
Baked taters 
Yorkies:
Prime Rib roast 
Started the roast off at 525 for an hour, then turned down to 250 for 2 hours.
During the first hour, I seared the tenderloin, then roasted in the 250F oven for 1 hour.
Didn't want to bother making bday cake or our usual trifle, so ordered 2 DQ ice cream logs as hubby's birthday cake. It was a lovely evening, and there was lots leftover to send home with the kids!
