    Default Holiday Dinner

    This Christmas, unlike past ones, my family has decided to order Chinese food for our annual get together. Now, I love Chinese food but I am definitely going to miss the delicious food we usually have. The ham, dinner rolls, meat balls...I can almost taste them. So I ask you all, what do you usually eat during your holiday celebrations?

    Turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, cranberries, rolls.

    This year we're replacing turkey with pork chops for what I can only assume is Dad being fed up with fighting with the turkey twice a year.

    Christmas is very hot down these parts so our food is a little different to the usual 'roast bird+potato+other sides'. This year Tara and I are having a bacon, egg and fruity pancake breakfast with mimosas. Then for dinner I'm barbecuing crayfish tails and making Mexican cheesy corn (hopefully we don't screw this part up because we'll have been drinking margaritas and elderflower mojitos for a while at this point, so results may vary). Best of all, every Christmas I persuade Tara to bake me a cheesecake, so I'm going to be a very happy boy. Also, cherries are in season so I grabbed a massive box of them, but I've already eaten like half so hopefully they last until Christmas day >.>

    Fooooooood~

    Traditionally I have turkey, mashed potatoes, more mashed potatoes, green beens and yule log for dessert. No yule log this year

    There's usually other options like stuffing but I hate stuffing

    I would only eat bacon wrapped sausages if I could.

    Whatever my dad buys from the store at the last minute. I'll probably also make myself a pizza because I do that every day, holiday or not.

    We're getting turkey plates from a drive thru.

    Space is very limited in the R.V. with so many people and 2 dogs. So yeah.

    Those all sound delicious. I ended up going to my Aunt's house and she is making a boiled ham dinner. Merry Christmas all!

    We had Christmas breakfast. Bacon waffles, bacon, seasoned potatoes, scrambled cheesy eggs, gammon steak, pineapple, cinnamon rolls, orange juice, Martinelli's, and chocolate milk!

    This is a photo from last year, but I pretty much cooked the same again this year.



    Also fed it to others this year, not just myself. No-one has died yet... which is a bonus, I was just worried my iron stomach was hardened to my own cooking xD
