RadishRose, I’ll take one of those Pomegranate Moscow Mules, please. I’m downright thirsty now. I’m not driving tonight, so don’t spare any of the ingredients.

For my Xmas dinner, I have made Moroccan lamb tagine with apricots, olives, and buttered almonds. Sooooo yummy. Of course, I will share. It is accompanied by Moroccan flatbread, used as a scoop to gather the tagine. I don’t have a traditional tagine pot, but a slow cooker/instant pot works very well. Please help me eat this wonderful concoction. I have 8 quarts of it!

I will help you eat it Shalimar...Sounds delicious, too! I love all of those ingredients.

So, Shalimar...what is the best way to get to your house from Minneapolis? You can't expect to make posts like that and not have people showing up at your door!

RadishRose, Your spread looks delicious, and like something I would really enjoy!

So, tell me...how are you making the pancetta crisps? Do you layer the fig jam on the crisp after baking, then add the other ingredients?

I'll bring the wine!

Here is a song to send with your red glitter broom (instead of the "border to Mexico", it will be "the border to Canada" in this situation)...

To my gosh...I feel like a stuffed blimp! You all really out did yourselves with the delicious food and I thank you. But before I waddle home, let us all enjoy a wee sip of the good stuff. I raise my glass to you all, please join me in a toast...

I drink to your health when I'm with you,
I drink to your health when I'm alone,
I drink to your health so often,
I'm starting to worry about my own!

Well, there is a lot of winter remaining after the holidays are history. My recommendation is to join the pistol club for the remainder of the winter: Drink 'til twelve and pistol four. If you can keep up, there is always spring and summer, and fall, and ...

Is Turkey not as popular for Christmas in the US? More for Thanksgiving?

Both, but some people will have a ham or a rib roast for Christmas.
