Thanks. You have your reasons so I will eat some for you. I have turkey for Thanksgiving and Ham for Christmas. We usually buy them together to insure we have them ready. I have 2 deep freezers.
Great idea. My large family picks a family in need every year to “do” Christmas for. It has been so much better than any gift exchange we have done in the past.
Very nice! We look for the after-holiday specials (sometimes you can get hams or turkeys for a few dollars), and then we go to the families that are tight nearby and surprise them. They don't mind that it's just after the holiday.
I know what you mean. When I used to work, both factories I worked at used to give us a Ham at Christmas. They came in handy. God bless you and may this holiday season be the best ever for everyone.
Lucky dogs. Our dog Izzy who is 17 years old usually waits for one of the grandkids to drop something or slip her something under the table. Then she knows when I'm cleaning up that she will get the scraps. She hasn't been herself lately and lays around more than usual. If the good Lord is willing she will make it for another holiday or two. We tried to give her a good life and she's been a happy dog. I hate to see her go but I expect it any day.
It is so good to hear others who have older dogs. Ours will be 17 in February. We only took Izzy to the vet a couple of times. Once for something gastro and the other to be weighed for a special flea pill. We deworm her ourselves and she doesn't go outside rootin and tootin like she once did so we don't give her any more rabies shots. My husband buys her as close to the best pet food we can afford and she is spoiled to our table food. Last night I made us a nice salad for Dinner as we are both on a diet, topped with fried chunks of chicken breast. And she sat there and begged until we gave her a few chunks each of ours. It will kill us when she passes as she basically grew old with us. Just like one of our kids. God bless you and your dogs. In our old age they are one of our family that keep us company and warn us when anyone approaches. I thank God for all our pets.

We do the same. My work gives us a ham for Christmas. I will appreciate it more than ever this year.
they give us one here too but last year i stopped and gave mine to a homeless lady with 3 kids..I think they needed it more than i did.....

How do they cook it?
the ones we get are pre cooked you just need to heat it up

💖💕 It feels different. It feels more authentic this year.
Yes it does. Enjoy and don't forget to say MERRY CHRISTMAS, HAPPY TURKEY DAY AND HAPPY NEW YEAR, right in their faces.
Good for you. I usually buy them and chop them up for the pups.

I have a 18 years old dog. He is still so strange.
Izzy loves her turkey.
I have dogs that live well into their teens.
Lost one at 17.5 a couple years ago and our next oldest is 16.5 now.
No vaccines save for rabies as we are in the woods a lot and get nail trimming down. Once senior years arrive even that one stops.
