Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
My family is rather traditional when it comes to holiday dinners. We usually have turkey, bread stuffing, mashed potatoes, carrots, squash, turnip, and cranberry sauce for dinner, and then a giant table filled with cookies, pies, brownies, nuts, and cheeses for later. This year we're trying to do things a little bit differently. We're still doing turkey, but we're mixing in some pasta dishes, chicken dishes, and meatballs as well, along with some different vegetables. This doesn't include what my sister is serving tonight at her annual Christmas Eve party.
What are you making for Christmas this year? Do you have a menu you follow every year? Are you doing anything differently this year?

So I am making my special lasagna that WILL get eaten. And it's easy to take to work for lunch. Besides, we just had turkey last month so let's change it up a bit.

The turkey has been cooked in various styles (never deep fried while I've been there, but I hear it was terrific), the dressing varies, the side dishes vary.
The only constant year to year is the mashed potatoes, which are now cooling in the fridge. We do a mashed potato casserole which is almost more dairy than potato by the time its done. Cream cheese, sour cream, yogurt, and butter. Its just not Christmas without it.
