That is actually my favorite part of any holiday dinner. But it must be the Ocean Spray Jelled cranberry sauce. I can eat a whole can and want more, no joke.
Christmas day for me will consist of: Breakfast / Christmas Morning with my parents and sister Lunch with my girlfriend's mother's side of the family Dinner with my girlfriend's father's side of the family

Cannot wait for the dinner... with my family in Kentucky, Christmas dinner is always bigger and better than Thanksgiving dinner. I am not sure what it will consist of, but I'm sure it will be great.

On Christmas Eve, my mom always makes lasagna, and then we always do a big breakfast with Honey Baked Ham, biscuits, and eggs on Christmas morning. Christmas night is with my stepdad's side of the family. Like Bishop, I've got no idea what it will be, but I'm sure it'll be great!

I need to ask my sister-in-law what she wants me to bring for Christmas dinner, but I've been cooking/baking/confecting up a storm: peppermint bark, bourbon bacon caramel corn, chipotle caramel corn, scape pesto/puff pastry "cookies", and homemade marshmallows (threw some bourbon in those too, what the hell). Christmas gift baskets are almost ready!
The GF is having her office party here tonight. I am smoking a turkey, and making my home made ceviche dip which is always a hit, I got it from my mom. Basically it is lump crab meat and cooked salad shrimp marinated with lime, and cilantro then mixed with hot salsa, tomatoes, green onion etc... and served as a dip.
thick sliced bacon, coated in ground mustard and brown sugar, and baked till crispy ;D
Yeah...we always called that Pig Candy...good stuff! ;D
My family stopped doing the "traditional" holiday dinner after my brother and I left home and got boyfriends/girlfriends then got married....they knew we would both have multiple holiday dinners for both Thanksgiving and Christmas and too many rich heavy dinners too close together = BLEEH! So for Christmas my mom started a tradition of us just having something light....soup and finger foods or just snacks or sandwiches or something not too heavy so it was different than all the other meals we have during the holidays...
Today we had lasagana, a special family recipe layered salad, little ham and bisquits and my homemade salsa and chips and my dad's BBQ grilled shrimp. For dessert it was my sis-in-laws cherry cheesecake, my snickers brownies, my sis-in-laws Special K Candy, Rice Crispie Treats, moms Fruit cake cookies and some other candy....Perfect Holiday meal! Totally Random and something for everyone.....and something everyone hated....like I said something for EVERYONE! LMAO!!
Prime Rib w/ horseradish Yorkshire Pudding en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yorkshire_pudding Broccoli & Carrots covered with hollandaise sauce over roasted new potatoes rolls fruit salad with a honey/mayo/sour cream/ginger dressing red wine
Followed up with Heavenly Pie:
Meringue crust filled with lemon filling and topped with fresh whipped cream
LOL! I so alternate whether our moms should meet and exchange stories/torture methods or wether they would totally clash and hate each other for not being what they expected the other to be....either way I don't see how we could lose....except being put in the middle which ALWAYS stinks Oh well....
So glad we both broke that cycle and have REAL sense...But I have to say that dinner sounds DELISH!! ;D You win on style and drool points if nothing else girl! Hope it was as good as it sounds/looks! ;D I am jealous but not envious...you definitely deserve to be pampered for AT LEAST a day...actually more but we'll work on that!
