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.

    • This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.
    • Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?
    • When we didn't trade him to the Rams or the Bears (I believe the Bears said they would take one of Brown/ Burns/DJ Moore) we should have just signed him and kept him.  We should have traded him to the Rams obviously and we should have kept DJ and traded Burns.  We made all three wrong choices with Burns lol.
