Leftovers for Christmas dinner? Yech.
First of all, since the kids no longer live at home, my wife and I get to sleep in late... say 10ish and then we get up and open up one small gift each (the rest we leave for the kids to arrive at the house). Then we have a late breakfast consisting of buttermilk pancakes and breakfast sausages, and of course coffee, orange juice, and/or milk.
Then we putz around and wait for the company to arrive. Once they get here, its rum & eggnoggs or khaluas & milk to sip on while we open all the Christmas presents.
And then of course, there's Christmas dinner...
Christmas isn't complete without roast turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, veggies, cranberry sauce, hot buns and rolls, a little bit of wine to go with dinner, and then of course hot apple pie with ice cream on top for desert.
Then we all sit around and moan and groan about having ate too much..
