Rib roast to chop suey, ready-to-eat Christmas dinners for pick up or delivery in Baltimore: 11 suggestions.

Jacob and I always cook a big Thanksgiving dinner (Jacob is the turkey master), and for New Years Day we cook a meal around my legendary (if I do say so, myself) standing rib roast.

Christmas isn’t typically a day that we go big in the kitchen—there are packages to open and places to go and people to see.

Fortunately, we don’t have to spend the day cooking to have a special Christmas dinner. And you don’t have to either; you can have your feast fully cooked and ready for pick up—or delivered. Baltimore has lots of options for you and your guests. Here are a few suggestions.

If your company offers prepared Christmas dinners or I’ve missed one of your favorites, let me know and I’ll add it to the list.

And, of course, if you’d like to go the route of Ralphie and his family, Baltimore has lots of options. Sadly though, there’s not a single Chop Suey Palace with singing waiters to be found.

As a Sr. Writer at T. Rowe Price, I work with a group of the best copywriters around. We belong to the broader creative team within Enterprise Creative, a part of Corporate Marketing Services. _____________________________________________ A long and winding road: My path to T. Rowe Price was more twisted than Fidelity’s green line. With scholarship in hand, I left Kansas at 18 to study theatre in New York. When my soap opera paychecks stopped coming from CBS and started coming from the show’s sponsor, Proctor & Gamble, I discovered the power of advertising and switched careers. Over the years I’ve owned an ad agency in San Francisco; worked for Norman Lear on All in the Family, Good Times, Sanford and Son, and the rest of his hit shows; and as a member of Directors Guild of America, I directed Desi Arnaz in his last television appearance— we remained friends until his death. In 1988 I began freelancing full time didn’t look back. In January 2012 my rep at Boss Group called and said, “I know you don’t want to commute and writing for the financial industry isn’t high on your wish list, but I have a gig with T. Rowe Price in Owings Mills…” I was a contractor for eight months, drank the corporate Kool-Aid, became a TRP associate that August, and today I find myself smiling more often than not.
