I did a turkey for the benefit of my girlfriend and her family, who have that tradition. Nobody in my family is keen on turkey - I'll eat it but it's not a favorite, my parents just wouldn't eat it at all - so we always did something different at Christmas. This year, I did a leg of lamb as the second entree.
For sides there was dressing for the turkey, mashed potatoes, whisky-glazed sweet potatoes, baked buttercup squash, carrots, steamed broccoli, cauliflower and asparagus (Sobey's had a great sale on the latter) and Brussels sprouts sauteed with bacon and caramelized onions. For dessert I had a spread of Christmas cookies, plus an apple pie with quick-and-dirty caramel sauce made by melting a bar of Macintosh toffee into a bit of hot cream.
One of the cookies I made was meringues piped into rings with a star tip, so they'd resemble little wreaths, and then I topped them with green and red sprinkles to complete the resemblance. When my GF's little granddaughter saw them the next morning, she squealed "Sprinkle doughnuts!!!" and immediately wanted one for breakfast.
