last week, the boyfriend and i celebrated our christmas early since we were both leaving for home on friday. i turned the lights on on the christmas tree, hung our mini-stockings, and wrapped all of his gifts before we made dinner and hid inside for the night to avoid the cold rain. it felt so right having our christmas celebration there...making dinner, watching Christmas movies, and opening gifts together really put me in the spirit of the season!

we had received the new food & wine magazine in the mail on wednesday, and both looked at the recipe on the cover and knew that we needed to try it immediately. it was for a spice-rubbed roast chicken with a wasakaka sauce (this was the first time i had even heard of this sauce, but it would be equally amazing on fish as well), which i decided to serve over black rice and roast tomatoes with olive oil and salt and pepper. we both loved it and can't wait to make it again.

unfortunately the recipe is not online yet, but you should definitely go out and pick up the newest issue to try it! it's delicious, warm, comforting, and healthy...perfect to warm you up on a chilly night this winter.

| merry christmas! |
