Bacon/eggs/sausage links/pineapples/melons for breakfast.

Then ham. Lots and lots of ham and mucho casseroles.

Then not one but two movies today. One with my middle school kids and one with Mrs. Pstall.

You've got to be one of the few people on the planet that eat it. This has got to be the first time I have EVER heard someone say "I love fruitcake"!! But hey, I'm not here to judge. Enjoy!!  :stuff:

I didn't like it when I was young but as I got older I started liking a lot of things I never would dream that I would like. Fruit cake included.

I am from the Caribbeans, Antigua specifically. I haven't done Christmas in the Caribbeans in years and I miss it so much. Anyway, I don't do Thanksgiving but Christmas is my time of the year. I get to cook whatever I want. This year, I am going light because it's only me and my mate. I am preparing eschoviche fish, Lobster in ginger sauce, curry shrimp, and I am baking a regular size chicken. Side dishes are white rice, yellow rice, spanish style, sauted spinache with garlic, and regular salad. I don't do deserts.

 

For drinks, as I started, I am from the Caribbeans and Christmas isn't Christmas without the tradtional sorrel with alcohol. Can't do to much drinking today, life goes back to normal tomorrow.

 

Bon Appetit Everyone and Merry Christmas!

It's funny, when I first heard of fruit cake, in America, I thought it would be similiar to the one from the Caribbeans; especially since there is a lot of European influence in our culture. My mom brought home a fruitcake one Christmas and I think it sat around until it got so hard that us kids used it as a weapon to attack each other with.

 

 

Later on in years, I figured out if you soak the cake in brandy or rum, it isn't so bad. But way to many fruits for my taste. The way we make it, you barely bite into fruits.

yes, turned out to be Glenfiddich, 15 years old.  Can't wait.  What is the old saying, I've got champagne taste but beer budget?

 

good thing I love beer, but the occasional bottle of quality scotch is more than welcome.

 

That's good stuff.  Glenfiddich is the only scotch in my book.  You must be a person of good taste.

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
