Christmas 2011

Merry Christmas!! And Happy Holidays!!
7AM: I just placed the turkey in at 428 degrees F for the first 15 minutes. I will then place the temperature down to 356 for the remainder time which will be between 2 1/2 hours to 3 hours. I'm so excited!!! The Family has not got up yet, so I think I will surprise them with a Christmas Breakfast!!!
Hope you all are safe, warm, and full of joy with your loved ones!!!

8AM The turkey has been in the Oven for One hour now, it smells amazing. The Aroma has woken my family and they all had to come to the kitchen to see what it was. ;D Which worked out perfectly, because The Christmas Breakfast had jut finished. I made baked French Toast, and with it I made scrambled eggs and hash browns. Fresh squeezed Orange Juice, Milk and Eggnog. We are going to eat talk about our Christmas presents that we opened last night and then the cooking for our lunch/dinner will begin!

9AM Last hour for the Turkey to be in the Oven, It smells amazing throughout the entire house!! Cant wait for it to come out of the oven! We are going to let it sit for the same amount of time that it took to cook, we are then making the gravy. Not to mention we will be making all the sides while we are waiting for the turkey to rest! :D so happy!

10AM The Turkey Smells and Looks Amazing!! We are now taking it out of the oven to rest for three hours before serving... Now we have started on our stuffing, mushroom casserole, green beans, and Brussels Sprouts. Yum!!

12PM Everything is smelling great!! Just finished the gravy, one of the stuffing's and mushroom casserole. Almost done with the second stuffing, about to start the roasted potatoes, peeling the other potatoes for the mash, Ham, and prepping the Brussels Sprouts and green beans. two hours left and everyone will be here for a fantastic feast!!

1PM Almost everything is done, Ham should be out of the oven soon, roasted potatoes are coming out soon. Finishing up the last touches and setting up the table. One more hour and food will be in our stomachs!!

2:30PM Food!!

3:30PM Desserts!! Lemon Meringue, Chocolate Cream Pie, Pineapple Upside Down Cake, Pumpkin Spice Bread and a pie I did not make that was brought over... Not sure what it was, but it tasted amazing!!

Happy Holidays Everyone!!! Hope All Is Well!!
