The Black Sheep Family Christmas party is by far my favorite Christmas tradition. I love the food, booze and most importantly the people. My black sheep family consists of the majority of my cousins on my dads side. We started celebrating together about 5 years ago. We all believed that family should be there to support and accept each other. None of us are perfect at this. I'm certainly not perfect. But some things are just easier to accept. Its easy for me to accept people and their life choices, when they are based in love like Jill and Tammy. But not so easy to accept the one's who are prejudice, selfish, thoughtless, bigoted, cruel, or vicious. I am still working on how to love people like that. Hopefully, someday I will find the secret.
Now, back to the food, booze, and people. I added a few new things to my Mexican Chocolate Fondue tradition; Banana bread, pumpkin bread, black berries, raspberries,and my new favorite, salt & pepper kettle chips. Dipped in chocolate, they were AMAZING!!! I loved the Lemon Drop Shots, which is a where you take a shot of Vodka then bite down on a lemon wedge rolled in sugar. So GOOD!
It was great getting to know a few new additions to our flock of sheep and I loved giving everyone a "Family of Blacksheep" family fold for X-mas. It turned out so cute!!
