Christmas

This was what I suspect will be my final Christmas with my quasi-family the Fontaine's. This year they went all out, with a ham and a turkey (organic, free range, I think!) as well as good quality sausages. The sausages were wonderful this year, perfectly crisped up while roasting in turkey fat. I could really go for some more sausages at this point.

I'm not really sure if any of this constitutes a different dinner. I've already done Cranberry Sauce, Mashed Potatoes, Stuffing, and whatever other vegetables are buried under that in the photo that I can't recall at the moment. You know what though? It's Christmas. It's just going to have to do. Consider it a present to myself.

Jessica sent me home with a bag full of "baked" goods made in the microwave that were all very good! Peanut brittle, rocky road somethingerother, this stuff called "puppy food" (peanut butter and chocolate coated Crispix cereal) and some ginger snaps. Technically they were for both Shannon and myself, but I ate them all. Combined with the rosettes from my grandma and whatever else I've been snacking on, it's all enough to give me a pleasant tummy ache.
