Hey everybody, I'm open to some new and interesting Christmas menu ideas if you happen to have any lying around. I made a huge pan of southern cornbread dressing using my family's traditional recipe for Thanksgiving with all the usual trimmings including a large cheesecake for those who don't fully appreciate sweet potato pie or banana pudding.
Plus, we had enough turkey to feed our large group, have turkey sandwiches for a week and then boil it for a big pot of turkey carcass soup. My nieces and nephews cringe at the word "carcass" so if you have any suggestions for renaming my favorite leftover turkey recipe I will consider them.
My problem is that after eating one creative leftover turkey recipe after another for several weeks, the idea of baking another one so soon is not so appealing to me and my husband actually turned a lovely shade of green awhile ago when I mentioned it. His Christmas menu idea is to buy rib eye steaks, potatoes and salad fixings and let that be it; he even offered to be the cook! Whoa, now that's hard to resist but I can feel all my ancestors in the background threatening to haunt me if I'm lazy enough to cave.
We are not big fans of ham around here so I need Holiday recipes that don't use ham and Christmas menu ideas that will keep both my living and departed family members happy!

I am working toward cooking an environmentally friendly Christmas dinner. My goal is to plan a nice meal using as many local ingredients as I can.
On another subject, I'm also campaigning to get concerned teachers and parents to pay attention to the products that schools are using to disinfect for H1N1 virus.
It seems that they don’t realize that cleaning supplies are often more hazardous than the H1N1 virus itself. Bleach should be diluted properly and usually isn't. This strong chemical can be dangerous when incorrectly used especially for children with asthma such as your own that you post about occasionally.
There are excellent resources to help parents discover what products their schools are using plus tips on what they should be using online. Parents not only have to protect their kids at home, but everywhere they spend time.
