There's only the 2 of us so a turkey and trimmings is too much work.

We had lobster,shrimp and small sirloin steaks. Being in Butte there is no such thing as good fresh seafood so we make do with frozen.

This year we fried our lobster tails after coating then in corn meal, flour, cayenne pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, salt & pepper. We cut the tails into shrimp size pieces and fried them a little less time than than you would shrimp. We let them rest for 5 minutes before eating.

The results was awesome - juicy, tasty and gone in about 5 seconds!

What did you have / make for Christmas Dinner?

If I remember anything from math class that's 4 lbs each minus skeletal structure and assorted innards equals a lot turkey sandwiches.

Went to my parent's house, had pork ribs, sweet potato casserole, fresh veggies and homemade chocolate cake for dessert.

Also ate candy in between everything. And got a big box of cookies/desserts from my friend's bakery yesterday. And brought home more cake.

Pretty sure I'm going to need a Rascal soon.
