FOOD IDEAS FOR NEW YEAR'S EVE

There is no better way to ring in the New Year than with a buffet dinner for family and friends.

I dug deep (very deep) into the bottom of my culinary files to find some tempting food that will be sure to ignite any party. 

Obligatory notice:
It is not my intention to offend , but merely to entertain. Please keep that in mind.

 Start out the evening with some rousing sheep penis hor d'oeuvres

(don't blame me - - I innocently found it on the Internet) 

 

 .......and keep the bubbles going all evening long with Arse champagne.....

The element of surprise is a sure-fire way to stimulate even the most boring and unwanted guest. Let these culinary inspirations expand your imagination.

Happy pork luncheon meat

A liverwurst and peas roll

Keeping with the peas theme, a peas and carrot gelatin mold

 An unforgettable egg and shrimp ring 

Who wouldn't want to try this mystery meat inspiration?

Guests will be unbearably eager to dig into this tempting eel casserole.....

.....and fish head pie......

The piece de resistance -

a boar's head centerpiece

This jellied tongue mold will leave everyone speechless

If your guests liked the mystery meat dish, they will absolutely love this mystery seafood platter

These black tacos with cabbage will infuse everyone with South of the Border fever!

Astonish your guests by serving an entire party in one glass

 Everyone will be singing praises for purple weenies!

A little imagination and a lot of unwanted leftovers can turn any New Year's Eve into a festival of excitement

Ready for dessert?

How about a slice of broccoli cake...

..... spam cupcakes.....

 ......and a breathtaking - not to mention healthy - vegan cake!


Bon appetit!

CHRISTMAS MUSIC TO TREASURE

I usually reserve my inane visual posts for my other blog Cabinet of Curious Treasures 
but today I'll make an exception.

In the spirit of the holiday season I'm offering some Christmas record albums that are certain to warm your heart.

 You won't thank me when it shits in your hands.

I initially thought these were two dudes, until I looked closely and saw that they're wearing June Cleaver strands of faux pearls

What's worse than a singing Santa?

A singing Santa with accordion accompaniment 

Memphis??
Looks more like Christmas in Chicago

.....and that's exactly where Dinkins belongs....

Looks like too much of a good thing

I'm making these captions up very quickly as I go along, without any thought....and it's painfully  obvious.....

 Those front teeth aren't the only problems- - this kid needs an ophthalmologist

 A finger-licking, grease-dripping Christmas

no comment necessary

It's rather ironic that Twitty rhymes with shitty

Hanged for the holidays - - and not a moment too soon.

Finally! An album that my cats can relate to!


Trust me - - you'll need the wine......

The innocence of a candy cane has been forever expunged......

I've actually been in Tijuana on Christmas (no kidding). It's thirty years later and I still haven't fully recovered.

Glad tidings from Mrs. Mills.
Dear Lord, I'd rather be in Tijuana.

.....not to mention a bad album......

Cody, you can't borrow anything. I'm not answering the door.

Now I've seen everything.
Shoot me.
Please!

I can't wait to hear the brass version of Away in a Manger.

Last, but certainly not least

I'll have a new post on my other blog later today (probably much later). It's presently dawn and I haven't been to bed yet. I'm too tired to function.

Come to think of it - - I can hardly function even when I get sleep......
