Following with an abundance of Christmas tree images. 

Our tree decorated with thrifted Hallmark Keepsake ornaments. I changed from a 3' tabletop tree to a 5' one so I could display all of my ornaments. 

The image below is from 1922.

Recipe of the Day is from The Ford Times Cookbook (1968). 

TAK BOK KUM (Korean Stye Chicken)

2 broiler chickens cut into sections

1 cup soy sauce

1 cup dry sherry

1 tbsp. garlic powder

1 tsp. ginger power

2 tsp. MSG

1 cup green onions, chopped

2 tbsp. sesame oil

Combine all ingredients and marinate chicken for at least 4 hours. Broil skin side down, then turn. Cook until not quite done. Dip in sauce and return to broiler skin side up. Cook 5-6 inches below broiler until done. Chicken meat will be very moist with a nicely browned skin. Serves 4.
