EAT YOUR BOOKS Lifetime membership giveaway (CLOSED)

Last night Mr Chipconnoisseur’s Mum and Dad surprised me with one of the most special gifts I could have wished for: a host of Polish traditions was incorporated into our Christmas Eve dinner. We had straw under the tablecloth to symbolise the manger, there was an extra chair for the weary traveller who might turn up needing a place to stay for the night and, this was my favourite part, the breaking of the bread with blessings. It was so sweet I cried…

My favourite dessert is a chocolate ganache cake consisting of layers of hazelnut meringue and whipped cream flavoured with chocolate ganache, then topped with chocolate ganache. I learnt it in a French cooking class at East Sydney Tech in the late 80s and have made it many times since. It is delicious beyond imagination and is my all time favourite.

I Love EYB! My favourite moment this Christmas is viewing an illumination with my husband, sister and mum while with them in Tokyo. They are huge light displays and absolutely beautiful.

At the moment I am loving fruit desserts. For Christmas I made a sour cream butter cake with poached apple and rhubard in the bottom. Served with natural yoghurt it was the perfect not too sweet, not too heavy cake.

My favourite dessert is cherry pie – not just any cherry pie, but my mom’s recipe that I make for the family for Christmas every year. Look at that, a dessert AND a Christmas moment.

The best part of Christmas was catching up with my dad’s side of the family-around 26 of us-and finding out that my cousin is pregnant with her first child. It was just such a wonderful day, and with amazing home-cooked food too!

My favorite moment this Christmas season actually came after a slight travel nightmare– my flight home to California (from visiting my family in Wisconsin) got canceled on Christmas morning, and I had to spend nearly 5 hours on the phone and standing in line at the airport, sorting out my replacement tickets for the next day– but getting an unexpected extra afternoon and evening to spend a little more quality time with my family made it all worth it!

My favorite part was watching my kids faces when hey opened their presents. So cute.

My favourite moment at Xmas is when all the relatives flock around my travelling plate of mince pies fresh from the oven, they all say it’s the only time they have homemade ones (despite them being so easy) and it’s so heartwarming to give them all a yummy treat :)

My favorite Christmas moment was watching my 8 month old son joyfully wrestling with tissue paper. In his opinion it was better than anything else in the box!
