Are you cooking Christmas dinner or are you going over to a family or friends home to dine?
I didn’t cook a Christmas dinner last year or maybe even the year before that, but this year I’m going to cook even though there will just be three of us.
Chris is off until Thursday, so earlier today we went out to a grocery store and I bought a fresh turkey, Cranberry jelly, peas, potatoes, sweet potatoes, asparagus, stuffing mix, pumpkin pie and plum pudding. Yes, that’s a lot of food, but mmmmm it will be so very good!
I love turkey and if I do say so myself mine usually turns out pretty good. Sure we’ll have leftovers forever but that’s ok. Chris can go back to work with delicious turkey sandwiches.
I’ll probably freeze some of the left over turkey too. Left over turkey is great to have around when you’re making a home made soup, stew or even a stir fry.
What will you do with your left overs … well, if there are any I mean.
I’m cooking Christmas dinner tonight, we’re having chicken rather than turkey as we aren’t big turkey fans. The chicken is already in the oven and starting to smell good. My worst habit is waiting too long before starting the chicken because it looks like we’ll be eating at 8:30pm tonight. At least we don’t have to get up early in the morning!
Merry Christmas!
