Enjoy your turkey!

<< < (6/8) > >>

Bluesummers:
I don't think turkey for Christmas is solely UK, but since it's a social mandate to have turkey for Thanksgiving here in the US, most people tend to choose some other protein for Christmas:

* Chicken (It's like a miniature turkey, stop being boring)
* Ham/Pot Roast (It puts the honey-glaze on its skin or else it gets the baster again!)
* Duck (Bless you for branching out, but God help you if you make it wrong)
* Fish (You must be Italian, I assume)
* Beef Brisket (You must be Jewish, I assume...extra points for being festive anyway)
* Peanut Butter (You must be five years old, I assume)
* Tofu (Put it back. No, we're not getting it, I don't care if it's on sale)Just kidding, vegans. I partake of the curd every now and again, don't fret.

In my family, my mother and sister were not huge fans of ham or turkey, so for xmas we always had lasagna, except I didn't like cheese, so my mom would leave the extra and broken noodles off to the side and I just had the noodles with sauce.

BeoPuppy:
Christmas with the parents used to consist of first day boerenkool, second day snert. I realise this will make zero sense to all non-dutch speaking people. But that is sort of the point.

Oh, and if mum felt adventurous she'd swap the meals between the days.

Christmas eve we have a BYO party between the evening and midnight services at our church (we live closest, it saves the choir and other oficiants the trouble of going home for a ew hours, especially in bad weather).  We bake a ham, and everyone brings fantastic stuff. 

Then christmas day is a pyjama day.  No one's allowed to dress.  We have a small turkey and pies again. 


I put on three pounds since Wednesday.  Dammit!!

I had smoked wild turkey, since they roam about Florida
