    A repeat of Thanksgiving dinner with all the traditional foods: turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, pie, etc.
    I'm looking forward to the day when I can start some of my own traditions, including being more innovative with the menu.

    Dessert - frostbite (YUMMY goodness of custard, egg whites, and whipping cream with grated chocolate on the top)

    Christmas Eve was beef estouffade with barley pilaf and grilled asparagus.

    Christmas lunch logs in at 1014 cals before wine. Nam Prik Ong with raw veg (google it) followed by more traditional fare. Roast chicken with bread stuffing with bacon and raisins. Cranberry sauce and roast brussel sprouts. Clafoutis with whipped cream for dessert. A guest is bringing Spanish charcuterie and cheeses which I haven't logged yet.

    Family. You, sir, are doing it right.

    We have a Christmas tradition: candy for breakfast. Dinner will be whatever my MIL prepares, and it'll be great because I didn't have to make it. :happy:

    Tomorrow's menu:

    Stuffed turkey breast
    Slow cooker stuffing (extra, because I find the one in the breast too wet and mushy)
    Honey roasted root vegetable medley (carrots, turnip, fennel, sweet potato and onion)
    Roast potatoes (my dad is bringing those, along with the gravy)
    Scalloped brussels sprouts
    Vanilla eggnog cheesecake

    Tonight I had leftovers... gotta get the fridge cleared out.

    I can relate - my hubs insists on another Thanksgiving meal, and I'm tired of it. At least I know how to cook it all pretty well by now :-) Happy Holidays

    Breakfast will be bacon and eggs. Dinner is Turkey legs and thighs (only 2 of us so not worth making a big turkey), mashed potatoes, green beans and stuffing with lemon pie for dessert!!

    Perhaps they could make it then!
