Since it's Christmas (and good help is hard to find!), this movie favorite is from my sister : )

"While Funny Farm isn't specifically a Christmas themed movie, it does have a large part of the plot taking place during the holiday.  This movie is a favorite throughout the year.  I love Yellow Dog!!"

And here's is the one thing my family lets my sister make for holiday gatherings.

Deviled Eggs

hardboiled, peeled eggs

mayonnaise

yellow mustard

paprika

optional: salt and pepper, sour cream

Cut eggs in half length-wise and remove yolks placing them in a bowl.

Break up the yolks with a fork (or fork and knife) until you have a fairly fine granular consistency.

Start your yolk mixture with a large spoonful of mayo. Start with less rather than more! For about 8 yolks

I start with about 1/4 cup mayo. Mix until smooth and creamy, adding more mayo or sour cream as needed.

Add 1/2 tsp of yellow mustard, or more to taste. This gives the eggs some tang and brightens up the yellow color lost with the mayo.

You should have a smooth and slightly stiff mix. Avoid the over soft or runny mix!

Arrange the whites on a plate. Add the yolk mixture with a spoon or a piping bag. Yes, they look much nicer if you use the piping bag (or ziplock bag with the corner snipped off), but if you are careful a spoon works fine.

Sprinkle the tops with a pinch of paprika and serve.
