Merry Christmas from our home to yours!

Christmas 2012 was just us this year.
Top of the list was making turkey in our rig - this is the 6th Christmas in our rig and the first time making a turkey in it. I checked with the local grocer/meat cutter and was told "of course, we can cut your turkey in half." When I went to the grocery store and asked the meat cutter he looked at me kind of puzzled but said "OK". And so I made our first traditional Christmas dinner ever in the rig.
What do you think?

| Turkey & gravy |
 |
| Dressing & Orange/peach jello salad |
 |
| Yams w/marshmallows and Green bean casserole |
 |
| Yukon gold mashed potatoes w/garlic |
 |
| Finished off with brownies & rice krispy treats! |
And of course no special dinner would be complete without a catastrophe of some kind ~ Ron reached for a glass, hit the bowl of jello salad, it did a full flip landing right side up and leaving this mess on the way down.

And then we got to Skype/Facetime with all four of our grandchildren. It was fun to hear about their day and what Santa brought them.

I enjoyed seeing your pictures, Alice. Glad your turkey and trimmings turned out well in spite of the jello "disaster".
ReplyDeleteI thought you were joking when you said you had them cut a turkey in half. :)
ReplyDeleteDon't know who you are Unknown...but yep had them cut it in half. Made half yesterday for Christmas and am going to make the other half either this weekend or on New Years Day.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great time! Your food looks delicious and your children are beautiful!
