and it’s delicious 😋

I seem to remember having turkey at my mom’s but we probably had ham too. Sandwiches for days.

They are on sale, so I load up.

a beef tenderloin on Christmas Day. The sides change year to year. Happy Christmas!🎄

a prime rib. This year I’m making Japanese Jiggly Cheesecake for dessert. It’s awesome!

The aardvark ruined it for everybody.

We get the free spiral ham with 400 points at Giant. It’s a way to easier meal than turkey (no gravy or mashed potatoes!) and honestly once a year is plenty turkey for me. Also macaroni & cheese, the usual green bean casserole, another vegetable, coleslaw, rolls, cheesecake and cookies for dessert.

cheesy potatoes, green beans, asparagus and ciabatta bread.

Hope your holiday is joyous.

Love it so much! Not as much as bacon but a danged close second.

Spiral ham wormed with a glaze.

Butternut squash.

Sweet potato

New Years will be roast duck

we have also done duck, goose, salmon and Cornish game hens.

Quorn is a meat substitute, mostly for poultry, and I think it’s one of the best. Even meat eaters like it.

So we had turkey!

Seriously, we had enough pork the rest of the year, so we went with the big bird or some moo cow on holidays. There was also a ham, so it is not like we didn't have any!

and home made ravioli on Christmas.

Just lots and lots of food!

And also when duck was less expensive, Nowadays it's whatever I feel like. But not turkey not ham, both of which I dislike.

(You can have the turkey and ham and I'll take the lima beans.)

Turkey that had "rested" on the counter so long it got cold before we were allowed to eat it.
