I am looking for some good idea's it will be my last and final splurge.... 2012 I will hearing those penny's scream!

 

[jas]

not really a dinner but going to sil's house for a party. Mostly finger food type stuff.

 

[Spirit Deer]

Cream cheese, seafood sauce, ripe olives, and surimi all bought on sale and made into a dip, served on Triscuits and Breton crackers from the clearance cart. Very frugal and tasty. And maybe some house-brand pop bought on sale. Very exciting stuff. And healthy, too!

Dad is welcomed to join DH, myself and our guests tonight in having an appetizer feast throughout the night but I think he's going to stick to leftovers :laugh:

 

[Darlene]

I don't know! I asked Dh what he wants & he said "Something good" Well ok, lol. I'm thinking...Happy hour will be some of that cheese, sausage & crackers a secret santa sent ( :smooch: to the mystery person, it was addressed to hubby so maybe an old co-worker? How nice of them!)and I'll have to get back to you on dinner. :toothy:

 

[hnybny91]

Not sure what's for dinner tonight but tomorrow we are eating pork and lentils because it represents forward movement and money in the new year

 

[Wendy99]

We're having family over tonight and we will have a simple meal of meatballs, mashed potatoes (the good kind made with sour cream and cream cheese - low fat of course haha), caesar salad, garlic bread and a veggie tray with dip. Something we can serve and eat on the couch with while we watch movies etc.

This is the first year that we're going to let our four youngest try to stay up (ok, well, maybe not the baby, but the three youngest boys, anyway!)

We're having broiled salmon filet, crab claws, garlic butter shrimp, scalloped potatoes and broccoli. I may or may not make a cheesecake, depending on how long everything else takes and the shopping I have to do to get ready!

Happy New Year FV'ers!

 

[imagine]

Dinner is homemade Applebee's no less wing knock offs and stick veggies and blue cheese dip

Evening munchies

Pizza rolls, Mac and cheese bites, little smokies, fried cheese sticks soda in bottles, and root beer floats

New years day beans and rice

 

[Debbie-cat]

Leftovers! :laugh:

 

[Squidge]

BBQ, believe it or not. Friend of ours is having a BBQ as part of his New Years Eve celebrations. Definitely unusual in Northern Ireland in January - should be good fun.

 

[wunsagin]

new recipe for chicken enchiladas, hm mexican rice and LO coconut pie.

Unless dh wants to go out for dinner. Who am I to say no

 

[AmyBoz]

Leftovers and snacky foods. We do a low-key NYE.

 

[nuisance26]

~Nothing out of the ordinary. Beef and bean burritos with all the fixins'(including the very rare guacamole, big splurge!).~

 

[cab54]

I bought some shrimp and made some cocktail sauce ---ketchup + horseradish (dash of hot sauce if you like it smokin hot).

Made a bean dip and a seafood dip, and we still have crackers and stuff left from Christmas.

Made up a meat and cheese tray, small.

Some cut up fresh veggies w/ ranch dip.

Some sweet things---pound cake, brownies, etc.

And some champagne for midnight......:dancing:

 

[zakity]

We do a family party on NYE. We have "party nachos" (nachos like you get in a restaurant with everything on them), sodapop (major treat), and homemade sundaes. We sit and watch movies until the ball drops, then we go to bed.

Care to share that wing recipe? My DD IS A WING FANATIC!

 

[KimZ]

Ours is:
Fresh Bruschetta - with Mozz
Stuffed Mushrooms
Steak - for Mom, Brother and Sister( I don't really like red meat so I have opted for just the veggie stuff)

DD is having pizza at the gym - she has a sleepover... 30 gymnasts YUCK - they won't get much sleep lol

Me and Mom are the only ones staying home... so I plan on being in bed by 10! I haven't stayed up for a New Years Eve since I started working retail.... which BTW is why I don't enjoy holidays anymore... which is why one of my goals is to quit my job by next October (ahhh one of my 20 wishes!)

Bring on 2012!
