For several years my family has gotten together for breakfast on Christmas morning. We'd have fried pork tenderloin and scrambled eggs, red eye gravy and homemade biscuits. Sometimes fresh OJ and always white Karo syrup and peanut butter mixed together and sopped up with a biscuit for something sweet.

This year we're going to break with tradition. I think the plan is homemade sweet rolls and OJ and later a baked ham for sandwiches maybe with some potato salad.

There aren't any kids in our family. My brother has two step sons but we may not even see them this year and they're both teens now anyway so ir's no big deal now.

Pass the gravy, please. Smiler
Sounds good this morning!
Well, both mine and my husband's parents are divorced and remarried. So we don't celebrate Christmas Day; we celebrate Christmas WEEK. Smiler

We try to have Christmas with each side of the family. Excellent cooks on all counts; so I know my New Year's resolution is always the same - "eat less and exercise". I just love being with family. Friends may come and friends may go, but family is there for life.

That said, my favorite part of Christmas every year is Christmas Caroling to "shut-ins". It takes so little effort and it means so much to them. We stay just a few minutes afterward at each house to love on them & to get loved on by them. It's a priviledge and a joy to spend time with them.
