Update: my sister-in-law & her boyfriend ordered a pre-made turkey dinner. We're going to reheat and eat at the adult care home where my mother-in-law is... hope my mother-in-law remembers who I am.

Azfiddle: Sounds like a good family turkey dinner to share there at the adult care home with your MIL.
Some changes since original posting at beginning of thread:
butternut squash moved to Christmas Day. He also wants to prepare a brunch of dessert crepes which will have blueberries and saskatoon berries.
Then on Christmas Day dinner we will have savoury crepes.
I'm sure we'll eat a slice of either bakery bought linzertorte which is a German/Austrian tarte with thin hazelnut crust and raspberry jam-almond filling.
We've even figured out vaguely for New Year's Eve....a cheese fondue.My Personal blog on cycling & other favourite passions.

Everyone (11 total, so not that big a group) is coming to my house after we attend our church service on Sunday. Since I won't be home all morning to cook, I'm putting on a couple of crock pots of potato soup and a pot of chicken and rice soup that morning. It will be soup, sandwiches with a lot of good bread options, and people are bringing salad, homemade rolls, and several kinds of pie. They are used to the traditional big Christmas day meal with a roast or turkey and all the fixings, but hey, they could have had it at their house!

I think I'm going to make a pot roast with root vegetables.

Shootingstar--coincidentally, the first fennel of summer was in the farmers' market today. Fennel slaw with pork chops tonight!

Tell us how your fennel dish turns out --whatever you choose to do with it.
One of the local grocery chain stores, inexplicably has lovely fennel bulb with its feathery fronds at a great price year round. I've never seen it so cheap elsewhere.
We bought some anise seeds also to crush and enhance the slaw flavour.
Of course, limewave others are welcome...maybe for now, imagining by photo later.My Personal blog on cycling & other favourite passions.
