"For
this festive occasion have a chafing dish arranged ready for use, a
cut-glass punch bowl and ladle, a Santa Claus in a sleigh drawn by
reindeer. Asparagus, maiden hair or other ferns, to represent a
forest, will supply further decoration. An ideal Christmas Eve
supper may comprise caviar sandwiches, devilled oysters, creamed
sweetbreads, cold boned turkey, lettuce salad, cheese and coffee. A
claret punch, made of claret, sherry, dices of cucumber, mint,
lemon, orange and other fruits, may be served in the glass punch
bowl."

The Delineator, 1903
