Turkey was excellent, sides were disappointing.
Garlic mashed were gone quickly
Stuffing, Meh, nobody has come up to the level of the Wife's
Brussels, Radicchio and ??? made for a very bitter veg dish. Maddy's Maple Syrup made it a really good side.
Carrots and turnip also didn't cut it
Addition of some demerara sugar took care of that..
Today we're prepping for family turkey at our son's home.
So far today
Damn I love going somewhere else for a celebration and you don't have to do anything. LOL
Just found out the sour cream used, two kids can't eat, so here comes another veggie dish.

- I sliced and diced carrots and onions (after sharpening knives wife is banned)

Excellent play by play hvyhaul and a lot of work!
For 2 xmases before we moved down to the Ridgeway area.
We would pack up presents, bring the turkey and fixings and home made desserts along with traeger meats for charcouterie board and do the white knuckle limited visibility trek from Kincardine. Neighbours kept the laneway open between blasts of snow and checked the house and fed the shed cats.
We did up tourtieres this year with bison and pork luckily ahead of the big day-it was great warmed up on the camp stove during 3 days of power outage. And the DeLuca fresh lasagne from Port Colborne we had was excellent last night with the grandlad's family and was worth the wait in line at their store front to get it-kinda reminded me of Seinfeld 'no soup for you' when it was my turn to receive one lol.
