What's for Dinner Boxing Day (Dec 26th)?

[Alix]

We're going to my MIL's place for a repeat of Christmas dinner with the rest of DH's family. Turkey etc and the works.

We're just going to go with turkey soup for lunch today as I think some of the kiddos might want to hit the malls for the big sales. (Boxing Day in Canada is like Black Friday in the US)

Leftovers, choosing from: ham, rib roast, Swedish meatballs...

What's for Dinner, Saturday December 26th?

Here in Canada, today is called Boxing day. I don't know the origins of it but it has become the day to return Christmas gifts and find huge bargains with which to spend your Christmas money. I use it as a day to unwind after all the hustle and bustle of Christmas day and the weeks of preparation.

I also look forward to cooking comfort food on Boxing day. I leave the leftovers for the rest of the week. I think tonight it will be beef dip with au jus, oven wedge fries and salad.

What are you having!

dinner at a restaurant. the booth was soaked, so they cleaned that, then jake noticed the table was sticky, so then they cleaned THAT. my steak, oversalted so i gave most of that to jake. we both got smashed taters that weren't like potatoes should be, moldy, maybe,? so he got a 2nd dish & those were the same, i replaced mine & got a salad with italian & there was so much seasoning i shunned that. french onion soup for him, so many dagnabbin onions there was a pile in the cup sans broth. veggies were so undercooked they were crunchy. those were bland & unseasoned. the drafts were fine. my after-dinner drink wasn't. the waitresses/servers were harried & disheveled. we probably won't be dining at thier restaurants soon.

Since my son works nights he doesn't get to cook as often as he would like, so last night was a special treat since he and I had a chance to cook together for the first time in a long time. Fried pork chops with caramelized onion gravy, white rice, corn, green beans almondine, homemade whole wheat yeast rolls.
