REST you weary bones, Granny. I just put the sauce to the bread for bread pudding, cinnamon/nut rolls for breakfast Christmas morn, have the ducks in the fridge, “thawing”. Tomorrow, I’ll make 4 pumpkin pies, a pumpkin cheesecake for my cleaning lady and family, a lemon custard layered cake, a choclolate-red cake, get the dry stuff for the dressing and the liquid stuff ready to put together Christmas day, the potatoes peeled and soaking, the carrots peeled and marinating in spices, the beets soaking in a sweet&sour sauce, and the pickles etc in their dishes. OH, I’ll have the eggnog in a pickling jar ready for the serving bowl, and those not inclined toward eggnog, I’ll have the cranberry punchless in the “dripless” container. (it drips). Rest well dear FRiend...tomorrow will be busy.

Well, I thought I was rested, until I read what you are cooking.

It made me tired, all over again.

I have all the tiny pieces of farm machinery stuffed into the stockings, but the real ‘prize’ this year is kid sized leather work gloves!! I know they’ll be a big hit!
