Ok we are in Germany and we are eating roast duck, dumplings and red cabbage, followed by a ragout of apple/raisins/apricots with vanilla sauce. We will drink spiced wine and hot chocolate. What are you guys cooking?
cheese pizza and a 2 gal jug of mah special once a year brew, Cloven Hoof. baileys, cinnamon whiskey, black spice rum, 2/3's cider, handful of whole cloves, brewed for a week. ~$80.00
Roast turkey stuffed with Sage and Onion stuffing and Sausage Meat stufing, with roast potatoes (tossed in duck fat), sprouts, cranberry sauce, bread sauce. Then Christmas Pudding with Brandy Sauce.
Beef tenderloin on the grill with a mushroom and onion topping. Roasted Yukon Gold potatoes, a carrot and broccoli medley. Pecan pie for dessert. No booze for me as I'm on call. Have a great holiday everyone!
I will endeavour to make traditional, Scottish smoked salmon starters (among other starters), Scotch broth, turkey with trimmings (roast potatoes, sage and onion stuffing, sprouts, carrots, peas, gravy etc), Christmas pudding with brandy sauce/trifle/cheeseboard and my non-UK husband will throw in items from his culture, to confuse us.
I'm still hunkered down in my bunker, in an undisclosed location. The Mayans didn't take into account our leap year...therefore the upcoming zombie apocalypse is just days away. I'll be having an MRE consisting of turkey with gravy and potatoes, cheesed filled pretzels, crackers, a sports bar which upon closer inspection resembles a turd...washed down with powdered cherry drink. Yum. The only ham I have is my radio,...ham radio. That's all for now, signing off. Herk out.
Stuff looks like a Bomb with nipples......scary man.... Now I happen to know [through a very reliable source I am not allowed to reveal] that a certain poster has this stuff for Breakfast..... and certain Holidays. Looks like they're Breeding........aaagghhh...
I'll be suffering with with a beef tenderloin. Not the poop bombs called haggis. (Goodness, how fou!l)
What is it with US folks...decent people trying to discuss Christmas dinner menu and in they come with their big "crass-boots" to make us all heave. JB, you're off on the lavatorial humour trail again I see, but do you know what a jb is? Google your Scots dictionary for that. That apart, no one eats a haggis at Christmas, you Floundering about...put your big guns away both of you...a haggis isn't an animal, you can stop trying to hunt it now.
