Annotations: Charles Dickens penned this sketch in December, 1835, as his conception of an ideal Yuletide gathering. Dickens, who may have invented the modern notion of Christmas, had lively ideas about what a family Christmas should be. This text is enriched with the Christmas menus devised and recipes--some from the Dickens' household--adapted for contemporary cooks by distinguished culinary historian Alice Ross.
