Never met a bacon strip I didn't like............................reminds me about that old saying about commitment............for breakfast...............the hen supplies the eggs and the pig supplies the bacon.................and you're in charge of the toast...................who's doing the most???????????????

 

[PatrickStapler]

Pulled pork and smoked Gouda grilled cheese on fresh sourdough…I didn’t make the bread.

 

[Bill Pemberton]

Surprised it doesn't say , " I didn't make the plate. "

We are having Turkey with dressing, mashed potatoes, Ham with raisin sauce, some salad ( forgot what it is ), and thanks to my wife's Swedish Heritage she made me Kringler for Breakfast ( with a sweet almond icing ). Not to stop there , we will have Ostkaka this evening with raspberry sauce. I already ate most of the traditional Fudge with Walnuts ( walnuts from a California grove a Ford Car Collector of mine owns ) she made and I made a small dent in the dill/oil/ranch dressing Oyster Crackers she makes. In other words, these are just a few reasons Mr. Stapler, I decided to stay here instead of driving all the way down to Huntsville for Biscuits and Gravy,ha!

I imagine many of us have feasts not unlike Thanksgiving over Christmas Day ----- I know there is something I have missed as my wife seems to think with 5 of us eating today we need food for 50!! I am not complaining as leftovers are killer at my house this time of year.

 

[PatrickStapler]

But…I did make the plate….

 

[Bill Pemberton]

Dang, just went in the kitchen and found SnickerDoodles, Swedish Almond Cake, Cheese Balls , but was kicked out as I am not allowed to have any till my son's family gets here --- she says she wants some left for others! I asked if there was more and she said, " Sure, Laci ( my son's wife ) is bringing stuff too!" I have no idea why so much food is being made , but I will just endure ------ I am so damn hungry now, skip opening the presents.
