our son arrived from RIC on Wed evening and my sister drove up from EUG on Thurs

oven is heating up, so once the ham goes in I’ll start prepping the sweet potatoes; we’re expecting SIL and her hubby and their two kids to show up ~1600 ... I’ll fire up the grill a bit later for the white king salmon

happy holidays and safe travels to all
Sounds delicious! After a lot of searching, I was able to find country ham at Central Market. I couldn't find any at HEB or Sprouts. We'll be having ham biscuits like we always had for Christmas Eve back in VA. I hadn't decided what to have on the side, but your post has me leaning towards sweet potatoes.

For some reason all my drinks on that flight were served without the little red straws. I did notice it. Not sure why I didn’t get a straw but I made do without. First sip was a little strong though.

We'll do presents and Christmas dinner after church tonight and then we get the day off together Thursday. I think the plan for our "holiday" is Top Golf and Six Flags Holiday in the Park.
Bummer you’re having to work tomorrow but nice of you to cover so others can be with their families. ^
Have fun at Top Golf. I took my family there over Thanksgiving when they were in town and they loved it. Maybe we need an SAT FT DO at Top Golf in ththe near future.

it’s a very low-effort recipe; at Thanksgiving we actually borrowed a baking dish from my college roommate and his wife, prepped it in our Residence Inn kitchenette, and took the filled dish back to their house to bake (I had made the pecans in Seattle, so that further simplified the morning work)

I am my own Secret Santa. Picked up a new Nighthawk Custom, a new Wilson Combat, and a new factory Zev Dragonfly (based on the Glock 34).

Yeah, baybee!

At least in my family, pretty much every holiday is one where someone is gonna get hurt.

Merry Christmas to some, merry Thor-mas to others...

That came across like we hate each other. We don't, we're just a clumsy bunch.

Almost every gate at CVG has a parked mainline jet (Christmas schedule cutdown).

Reminds me me of the good old days.

except for the relative lack of people and the absence of the C gates with 40-odd CRJ-200s ...
