Dad and I ordered the filet mignon. Yum! It's a tradition that we started when dad was doing his residency in Oklahoma. At Christmas time, the Oral Surgery department invited us to the Petroleum Club, the nicest restuarant in Oklahoma City for a fancy dinner, of filet mignon (which the Oral Surgery department paid for.) Since we were poor residents, we looked forward to that event all year! The Orthodontic residents and their wives would get all dressed up and take pictures, like we were going to prom. It was one of our favorite memories of our residency days in Oklahoma! Now every year, we serve (or order) filet mignon on Christmas eve, to remind us of some of our most humble but memorable Christmases spent in Oklahoma!
