“At Christmas, all roads lead home.” — Marjorie Holmes
I believe that wherever you are or whoever you’re with, home is where love and laughter exist. Christmas is in everyone’s heart.
Christmas at Maison Epperson
The food:
Hot cocoa + Candy cane = Christmas in a cup
We received so many blessings this year that another roast turkey was in order.
Thanksgiving part 2! Tom roasted a Butterball Turkey for our Christmas eve dinner.
Turkey stuffing: roasted chestnuts, sausage, onions, fresh sage, heavy cream, and sourdough bread
A Christmas miracle!
I don’t know who bought all the fresh sage in the market but that’s just not right! Haha! Tom and I searched high and low for the herbs for two days and with no luck. Thank God for the kind soul who gave us fresh sage for our turkey stuffing! We love you! #youknowwhoyouare
Sharing sage is caring!
Snack at the park: Bonchon chicken wings
Assorted cookies as snack… breakfast… lunch… dinner… midnight snack.
Since my family is half American and half Filipino, our meals were divided as follows:
Christmas eve dinner and brunch were American(ish)-style…
Bacon and cheese frittata

We went all out Pinoy for Christmas dinner…

The fashion… or the lack of it. Haha!
Name that jammies
Like what I said before, tradition vetoes trends!
Aryanna’s all-day pajama style!
The Christmas table setting:
The theme of our table setting this year was “12 Forever” — a bit grown-up but always child-like.
Plato-platuhan
Touches of elegant gold + Juvenile prints = 12 Forever
Fun and festive plates
Kyoot!
For hot cocoa and coffee
The Epperson’s signature bow napkin fold
Miss-match glassware
Carabao horn flatware

Give love on Christmas day and all-year round!
