Sweet breads, yuck! I have my own pancreas thank you very much!

We were only allowed to open 1 present after mass! Santa didn't come until we were in bed!

Re: What meat do you traditionally eat on Holidays?

A former member here said that the turducken was disgusting, and she was pretty much of a gourmet. Now the idea of a boneless turkey sounds good to me - but you gotta leave the wishbone!

I was just going to say that, I remember when she said it was disgusting too. and she' was pretty openminded to anything.

there's a prestuffed semideboned 'easy carve' turkey you can buy here. They're a little more expensive, but i bought one and was impressed. The only bones are the drumsticks. the rest is held together with a rope netting that you remove after. I've only had it once though, they're fairly small and pretty pricey (and our turkeys are pricey to being with here. )

"Collard greens & blackeyed peas, best served with pit-cooked pulled pork and lots of Champagne" <--- Boonie, we have that on New Year's day, not Eve.

That semideboned turkey sounds good Sadie, I've never seen it here. But I probably wouldn't spend the extra money on it anyway.
