January Birthday Dinner Party

My birthday is in January and I always get the comment, "Awww, a birthday so close to Christmas is a gyp!" But actually, I really like rounding out the holiday season with a birthday because my Christmas gifts are always a little bit more special, especially from my sister. The dinner party menu and recipes for this January birthday include some of my favorites such as a Vodka Dill Sauce on Salmon and a Simple Roasted White Asparagus. You'll also find January Fun Facts for the trivia buffs to chat about during dinner.

Warm weather cooking is what's on the menu for this January birthday dinner. Spike a cream sauce with vodka to drizzle on a capered salmon, serve tender roasted white asparagus, begin with feta couscous cakes and end it all with an Easy Chocolate Cheesecake for a fabulous birthday dessert.
