What's on the Table?

Robin, if I thought there was a chance I wouldn't eat something, I wouldn't hesitate to stop off to fill up first. DH does this all the time when we are visiting my family. He doesn't like "country" (fresh) food. hahahaha

Dalis, what is happening to these kids! LOL!!! They don't know what they're missing out on.
I stopped at Wendy's for dinner on my way to my brother's. Isn't that sad LOL!!!!!

Oh that will be quite a reunion Nini. Enjoy the visit!!
We get to spend Xmas with all my family in France and it's been maybe 11 years we haven't so I hope all will go ok lol We are supposed to make some maki sushi (rolled sushis) so I hope I won't mess things up lol
It's gonna be a non typical Xmas lunch : fried spring rolls (my aunt's ex was half vietnamese so she got the recipe from her MIL), my cousin will make some dumplings I think, our maki, it's gonna be Asia at the table lol

Oops! Too bad about the potatoes Karen. Maybe they will keep and can be served another meal. :)
Turkey and pork and I forgot to put the roast potatoes on the plates oops
 
Leftover spaghetti on our table. Saddest Christmas in my whole life. Long story but hubby is estranged from his mom & she was at the family Christmas. My boys went, but not me or hubby. Depressing day!
 
We usually have ham and stuff from Honeybaked but really no one likes it, lol. So this year me and my son made a turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes. Just not all that other Thanksgiving stuff, so it wasn't that big of a job. It was great.
 
in the morning we open presents and then have a big breakfast. today was pancakes, omelets, bacon, hash browns. then for dinner we totally busted out grilled cheese & french fries... the goal here is to keep it simple and low-work-required. i don't like to have to do much work on Christmas.
 
Whatcha cookin'?

Hubby makes Prime Rib with yorkshire pudding, mashed potatoes & salad. for desert, we had pumpkin pie with whipped cream.

What do you typically serve this time of year?

all of the above :) delish! I'm SOOO full!
 
Shannon,
Reading this breaks my heart. It sure can be hard to deal with the family drama around the holidays. So glad that your boys were still a part of it all in the spirit of the holiday. ;)

Angie, how cool that you and your son worked together and made your own new tradition.

Rebecca, That sounds like one awesome breakfast. As for grilled cheese, that is so what we will be having tomorrow once all the brisket is gone. :giggle
