Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

Great news, gave a wonderful Christmas LVTG. Has the cold snap found its way to Vegas?
Thank you! Best wishes to you and yours this Christmas!!

No, the winter storm is not supposed to reach us. It's a bit warm for this time of year since it's going to be about 70F today and tomorrow. In a few days, it will get back down to the 50's which is more the normal this time of year.

I feel really bad for the rest of the US especially all of the animals that are outside in sub freezing temps. :(
 

Stuffing sounds very similar to what we used to do. Certainly the sausage meat, cranberries, chestnuts and breadcrumbs rings a bell.

Good decision with the beer. You can't do all that prepping without a drink in your hand. We used to have port. We'd normally finish off the bottle that we'd used to make the Cranberry sauce.;)
It looks real close to the one I made this year for Thanksgiving except I had added chopped apples. The chestnuts sound like a great idea!

It looks proper bad news that weather.
 

Agreed. Half is nestled in the neck of the bird and the rest will be rolled into balls and roasted tomorrow.

Turkey is ready for the oven first thing, spuds boiled and ready to roast, salmon mousse for breakfast is done and gravy base is finished and all. Blini batter will be knocked up once kids are in bed and left to slow prove in the fridge, and biscuits will be made with their help after I’ve had a sit down and another beer because that’s gonna be an ordeal.View attachment 198067
All looking good Brett.

If you have any unwanted leg leftover I'll PM you my address.?

Almost done for the night. Pistachio and cranberry shortbreads (half dipped in white chocky) made, and rum poured. Good job Santa likes the good stuff.

Just the small matter of sacks of pressies to be lugged downstairs now…
Looks like the Gingerbread man’s willy has dropped off mate.

Had to look closer at the pic. Thought it was @tommye's finger for a moment.

What's @tommye's finger doing there. Have you asked Santa to sow it back on for him for Christmas.?
