Snugs,
I'm responding to your post about what your Christmas meal will be. My family, from Florida, typically does Christmas breakfast instead of dinner or supper. The long standing tradition is sausage gravy and biscuits. Within the last few years we've added in quiche.
This year my husband and I decided to have Christmas in our home instead of traveling and are carrying on the sausage gravy & biscuits, but later in the morning after our church service.
I've always wanted to do a Christmas dinner thing. Maybe the hubby and I will have to start a new tradition one of these years. But how often can you justify having sausage gravy and biscuits? Thanksgiving is for turkey! ;)

I just heard Bernard Kerik has withdrawn his name from the Homelanad Security nomination for personal reasons. RATS!

What is sausage gravy and biscuits? Turkey has now become the traditional English meal for Christmas but years ago it was goose. I love goose but it is so expensive and I also get a little nervous with all the hot fat that comes out of it and get scared of burning myself. I would love a goose but cannot really justify the price this year maybe next.

Our family tradition is to have breakfast on Christmas Eve, the girls will then hang their stockings, we'll read Christmas stories and then they go to bed....in the morning we have orange rolls and milk and open our packages. For dinner we have a ham, spinach salad, scalloped potatoes, vegetables and yeast rolls. I know it is strange to have the breakfast at night, but with hot biscuits and hot cocoa it's comforting and the girls love it.
