12 people for dinner again, and once again no pics of the sides i made
. Made mashed potatoes, roasted butternut squash, roasted asparagus (squash and asparagus back by popular demand) , brussel sprouts sauteed with bacon, and turkey gravy.
Brought by company was a loaf of home made challa bread, a trifle, and the mother in-law made traditional christmas pudding with hard sauce.
To say the least, everyone was stuffed to the brim when it was all said and done.
