Had turkey like most people... but I cooked this one myself, for the first time! It turned out amazingly well, dare I say perfect.
Last night I made tater tots, sausage, and boiled broccoli.
Tonight we are taking my visiting younger sister out to Humpty's Family Restaurant. We will be taking advantage of some of their promotions. 2x free juice with regular priced meal coupons. I also bought their gift cards, buy $50 get $10 free.
Sunday's supper is home made cabbage rolls, home made cheddar and onion perogies, home made bacon perogies, Schneiders Ukrainian sausage, fried onion, and sour cream. At the end of the growing season I traded someone all of my green tomatoes for 1 dozen home made cabbage rolls and 4 dozen home made perogies. There will be too many perogies for just the four of us, so some special home made perogies for another occasion.
I also have home made sugar cookies and healthy carrot muffins. There are other home made goodies in the freezer that I had baked in advance.
Turkey again tonight for us.
Turkey anyone...?? lol...I'm making these monster sandwiches with leftover turkey, mashed potato, stuffing, cranberry sauce & gravy :)

hubby is baking a turkey breast, then he'll make stuffing and baked sweet potato. My job is to eat :) 'cause i'm too tired from boxing day shopping
YES, please! I'm very jealous of all the turkey meals!
We are having M&M jumbo crunchy wings - they are SO good, and I'm so glad they went down in price for the holidays! Sides will be fried up leftover perogies - for veg, I'll cook up some broccoli for me, and I'll maybe try to get husband to have some antipasto so he can grab a vitamin or two.
I was lazy but creative and used what was in the fridge.
Turkey
cooked potatoes
2 slices of back bacon
a pepper
one onion
2 cloves garlic
1/2 jar jalapenos
1 cup shredded cheddar
paprika, salt, pepper
Fried it all up. Hubby LOVED it!
