The Seven Fishes

I'm not Italian, but ten years in East Boston made the Seven Fishes a family tradition anyway. This year, I have:

Cod
Sardines
Herring
Caviar
Salmon
Octopus in a tin (yep)
Tuna


It will mainly be sides, with a main dish of baked cod. The caviar will go on deviled eggs. I'll make the pimento/nut-free cheese ball (don't ask) and some pasta for the salmon as a cold salad. Beyond that? Hell, I have no idea, but thankfully my boys don't care. After Danny heads off to bed, we'll watch Female Trouble, because it is the very best Christmas movie, ever.
