Oh my goodnessssss, how did I miss that? :-)<br /><br />Christmas Dinner is a Family Dinner, with all contributing. But it will be Turkey and Dressing, and my husband ALWAYS makes the turkey/dressing. And "Newman's Creamed Potatoes" too. Tradition.<br /><br />Since our next-door-son and his wife, have 4 children, a baby being the youngest..... We, our daughter/family and our other son/family will gather at his (next door) family home, for dinner. (Plus a Japanese Exchange Student and an Italian Exchange Student, staying with daughter and son) <br /><br />As I said, it's right next door, and he/son wants to have the turkey coooking aroma in his house. So my husband readies the turkey , and when our son's stove is hot, we bring the stuffed turkey over there. To cook. :-)<br /><br />Merry Christmas!<br /><br /><i><b>"Did you ever wonder about the Victorian version of sugarplums dancing around every one's head in "A Visit From St. Nicholas"?

A war hero would be a better choice. Steve Jobs did quite a thing for technology, but his kids were practically estranged from him, I have gathered, so the question is, "would THEY choose him?" hmmm.Zoannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07119513647613843627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-858143791835649382.post-338415959276645042011-12-21T13:15:45.459-07:002011-12-21T13:15:45.459-07:00What a nice picture and how nice to see your roomm...What a nice picture and how nice to see your roommate after all these years!
