Ah, maybe generally acceptable, but not to the outlaws. Morgawse Send a noteboard - 05/12/2011 01:46:45 PM
You have to remember that these people are all kinds of crazy :D They eat turkey at Christmas because that's what you do and it wouldn't be a proper Christmas without it. Even though they prefer all sorts of other food to turkey. The mind boggles. But then 'the mind boggles' is a fairly common response of mine to stuff they do and has been ever since Dave and I got together, and this is one of the more innocent ones, so it could all be worse....

My family's Christmas is Second Thansgiving, but with bonus desserts. Mostly pie, cookies, and candy *NM* Burr - 04/12/2011 03:00:51 PM 586 Views
Or rather... Fifth Thanksgiving. Thanksgivings 2, 3, and 4 are all about Thanksgiving 1 leftovers. *NM* Burr - 04/12/2011 03:02:42 PM 427 Views
No, generally we do not make cake for Christmas. *NM* Tom - 04/12/2011 04:41:05 PM 447 Views

We don't have a sheet of icing? Palatine - 04/12/2011 05:08:00 PM 940 Views
We have different icing. It is not typically a very dense, flat sheet of solid icing. Like fondant. nossy - 04/12/2011 07:46:41 PM 1256 Views
That's just for Christmas cakes and wedding cakes, usually. Rebekah - 04/12/2011 07:58:55 PM 1066 Views

Plus with loads of brandy used to "feed" the cake over the month before you ice it. Rebekah - 04/12/2011 08:45:28 PM 945 Views
