Roll in seasoned flour. Fry in oil and butter, several at a time. Place on cookie sheets. Cover with foil and reheat at 400 degrees just before meal.

Desserts: Aunt Sylvia's cream puffs and brownies. Detox cake, pies and Gloria's trays of her beautiful cookies - best anywhere. Aunt Judy's fudge.

I should be embarrassed to admit that there have been Christmas mornings when the leftovers from this feast have been served for breakfast. We are gourmands, not gourmets, and Christmas only comes once a year.
