DH and I visit my parents for Christmas, as my parents are Catholic.

The menu (usually) is:
Cocktails and those frozen pre-made hors d'oeuvres (beef pigs-in-blankets, cheese pinwheels, potato puffs, etc)
Prime rib
Yorkshire pudding
Some kind of veggie, usually steamed broccoli
Red wine
Fruitcake for dessert
Espresso, after-dinner drinks, and petits fours

This year, I'm thinking of making a pre-emptive strike and bringing an apple pie, so we don't have to suffer through the fruitcake.
