Hubby hates change and loves the traditional menu. Daughter has discovered multiple food problems, vegan, gluten intolerant, allergy to milk and egg. I don’t like turkey. Son-I-law will eat anything.
1. If you really want a certain food, you make it and contribute to the meal.
2. Christmas is not turkey. Probably salmon. And a birthday cake for Jesus…not chocolate if I’m making it. Daughter often makes the foods that are gluten, eggs, milk so she can alter them. And she’s good at it.
3. Daughter’s dietary needs are wonderful. There’ll be a salad and a veg with no creamy sauce. She makes great cornbread.
4. As long as there’s turkey, onion sauce (which he makes) and mashed potatoes, hubby’s happy.
5. Me, it’s cinnamon-orange-cranberry sauce and dressing, vegetables. No turkey, gravy, mash potatoes, jello, apple pie.
6. Son-I-l is just happy.
