I look forward to decorating for Christmas basically all year. It is so hard for me to wait until the end of November to break out the red and green. As soon as Thanksgiving is over I’m always in a rush to decorate the house before our annual Christmas party. But home decorations are not the only way to create a festive atmosphere for your family or guests. Try serving up some red and green recipes on their plate!
