Here's my list:
Turkey-Jamie
Ham-Not enough people attending to necessitate
Potatoes/gravy-Jamie
Rolls-not bothering, since father in law won't eat bread
Cranberries-Jamie
Green Salad-what, in winter?
Stuffing-Jamie (home-made stovetop since Stouffer's isn't available in England)
Yams-Jamie
Cheeseball-why bother? It's just dinner
Crackers-see above
Fruit Salad-crap, hadn't thought about that. Jamie? Might have to run to the shops!
Relish Tray-see cheeseball
Apple Pie-nope
Dessert-Jamie (pecan pie)
Pumpkin Pie-Jamie (once again, made from scratch as canned pumpkin is not available)
Paper Products-puhleeze! I will be doing all the dishes afterwards.
Sometimes I wonder why I bother, but then I remember that my children are half American, and I want them to celebrate that fact.
Happy Holidays, y'all!

Your post made me laugh, but I am sorry you won't be with us tomorrow:( I am now doing the ham also so you can feel a little bit better since I have only cooked one in my life. Dad told me a million times not to overcook it- no pressure right?
