Favorite holiday edible/drinkable
 

What is your favorite winter holiday edible/drinkable?

Mine is boiled custard. Not yucky eggnog. Real boiled custard and maybe a cup of ambrosia with real, just whipped Dream Whip made with fresh cream.
Yum!

It's gotta be my older sister's homemade red velvet cake *yum* She always makes me a cake for myself :D No wonder why I gain so much wait during break!

Cream candy! Oh, how I love it...

You're the second person within a week to ask me this...my boyfriend didn't know what it was, either. I guess they don't have it in West Virginia where he's from. Anyway, cream candy is made from cream and sugar and it's cooked so that it gets to the consistency of taffy, and then you have to pull it like you would taffy and then it's cut into pieces about an inch and half long. It's best when it's been in the refrigerator (or, in our case, out on the back porch) and it's cold when you bite into it. Good cream candy will be sort of chewy when it's first made, then set into a kind of flaky consistency, and it melts in your mouth. Mmmmmmmmm... :)

I like a caramel custard that my mother makes and pheasant stuffed with rice and truffles.

you guys have some wierd favorites :cool:

my fav is my grandma's homemade herb and sausage stuffing. I swear i could eat it all day :) oh and my aunts sweet and sour green beans mmmmm :) oh and cranberry pecan bread, yum!

I love all of the hors d'oeurves that come along with holiday parties. Like cheese straws, stuffed mushrooms, pecan crisps - I love them all!!
