Turkey tastes like chicken but okay lah once a year.
ReplyDeleteXmas this year is an important date for you, wasn't it? Hardwork pays off and celebration follows, eh?
ReplyDeleteA new semester now? Or is there a break until the new year?
ReplyDeleteFocus is always on the turkey and not chicken becoz it holds 'tur key' to the celebration.
ReplyDeleteGlad you can take a breather after you have done with your assignment to receive a bloating reward haha.
ReplyDeleteI seriously have no idea how do turkey come about for christmas, but then again that's really not the main thing for christmas...
ReplyDeletechristmas is to remember the day that Jesus was born into this world. It was a good news for everyone as the messiah that has been promised has finally arrived. thus everyone is sharing the good news and joy with each other.
again, merry christmas everyone :D
Getting older hence no more count down party for me...:-)
ReplyDeleteyep, i spent xmas with my family back in malacca and it was great.
ReplyDeleteI dun really fancy turkey. gimme roast chicken anytime!!
Christmas to me and my Quay Lo is about bonding with family and friends, enjoying good food, good company and have a great time togethe. Our Christmas was magical filled with joy and love:D Every year my My Quay Lo baked the turkey but we got lazy last year bought it. It tasted terrible so this year he baked it again. It tasted way better! From what I understand, the reason why we eat turkey on Thanksgiving and Christmas is because of Scrooge's gift of a Christmas turkey to the Cratchit family. The birds were associated with the working class and poor immigrants, who often received turkeys from charities during the holidays.
ReplyDeleteHmm I'm not a Christian myself but if I'm not mistaken, turkey is meant to be for Thanksgiving instead of for Christmas? I think someone must have told me that before, although I'm not sure why.. haha
ReplyDeleteNot a Christian myself but whenever we do all those Xmas parties in the office, I'd order a big turkey. xD
ReplyDeleteSignificance of Christmas?
ReplyDeleteI just care about the public holiday! LOL
and see Christmas decor all over malls in Malaysia.
ReplyDeleteCNY & Hari Raya decor also cannot challenge Chritmas ones.
Turkey is bigger and meatier than chicken, hence it is chosen for Christmas.... I'm bluffing.
ReplyDeleteI don't know why Turkey is a must for Christmas :p
I'm a non-Christian. Joined my girl's kindergarten's activity and got to know that Christmas is to celebrate the birth of Christ >> the name Christ-mas, see??
ReplyDeleteBut I really enjoy this season, not the wild countdown parties but I prefer the "silent night" with family and close friends.....
ReplyDeleteThe turkey looks good! So how long did you end up in the gym to burn the calories? Hehe.. :P
ReplyDeleteI love your sentiment of Christmas is a time we share the joy of happiness with our loved ones. I have done that this year.
ReplyDeleteMy family of 4 spent it with my sister family of 3.
ReplyDeleteI didn't have turkey...too expensive. Actually tastes like breast meat. Would prefer a BIG FAT chicken instead... LOL!!!
ReplyDeleteTwilight Man crossed my mind and have not been 'seeing' him lately. Must have been pretty busy delivering presents with Santa and now drinking tea in some corner of the world. Bro pai nai krab?
ReplyDeletechristmas? holiday lor! hahahaha
ReplyDeletethat's all i know. bleh.

Xmas to me as a Moslem is fun! I get to say it to my friends and make them feel respected! I also like to eat hahahaha
ReplyDeleteNow I need to eat....

ReplyDeleteThis Christmas Eve was attending a friend's wedding at Perlis oh!
係吖,我呢几日都係同我嘅至親至愛一同度過,一同分享快樂喜悅,仲有屋企嗰个小霸王增添不少“热闹”气氛!呵呵呵~~~:)
ReplyDeleteme ah? hmm...nothing much lo...makan makan and more makan lor :P
ReplyDelete我每年过的都是lonely christmas.
ReplyDelete今年的聖誕 連聖誕歌都來不及聽就過了
ReplyDeletechristmas is the most commercialized holiday ever. i think we, even if we're not christians, should be respectful of the day and control ourselves from indulging in the wild parties - though christmas itself has roots in pagan origins.
ReplyDeleteas for turkey in christmas dinner, here's what i found: http://recipewise.co.uk/the-history-of-the-turkey-at-christmas
Yes! Must have turkey for Christmas although I have no freaking idea why!
ReplyDeleteAnyway, turkey is not a favorite food of mine. Meat too dry and simply not as nice as chicken.
ReplyDeleteStill the turkey can be acceptable if served with cranberries sauce : )
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I also have no idea why we celebrate Christmas cos Jesus Christ was not born on Christmas Day. What is Christmas for?
ReplyDeleteBut Christmas time is such a nice time of the year. I always like the Christmassy feeling.
ReplyDeleteNowadays, Christmas is more like everyone's celebration instead of just the Christians celebrating it. Which is not bad also, in a way.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, Merry Christmas!! Yes, it's still Christmas for me! : D
ReplyDelete3 xmas dinners for me and 1 lunch - still BLOATED
ReplyDeleteTurkey is not always the main dish during Christmas. Goose and duck are also eaten as in Austria and Denmark. Wikipedia has some good info on this if you are interested: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas_dinner
ReplyDeleteI simply love the xmas mood..
ReplyDeleteNo turkey for me this year....only turkey rolls....lol
ReplyDelete我有做到啊!今年聖誕非常特別,感謝佛祖保佑,阿彌陀佛。
ReplyDeleteunfortunately... we never had a turkey for christman haha we are already satisfied with a chicken
ReplyDeleteme too... i don't think there is a sense behind that traditional turkey dish for christmas eve...lemme check that on the web haha I am quite intrigued now
ReplyDeleteour pastor always remind us about the true meaning of Christmas but sad to say, only few knows its real purpose and why are we celebrating such important occasion
ReplyDeleteas what our pastor said, just emphasize the word CHRIST in Christmas and from that you will be reminded what is this occasion for... and that is to pay tribute to the day when Jesus Christ was born
ReplyDeleteChristmas is more than just exchanging gifts or having the most wonderful dinner with your family and friends...
ReplyDeleteoh every year it is our tradition to have a reunion together
ReplyDeletehave a great day SK, belated Merry Christmas and Happy Nrw year
and thanks for the birthday greetings by the way
ReplyDeleteSo, are you Buddhist?
ReplyDeleteI got turkey meat twice, didnt really have a Whole Turkey with Family in my life . . . sad lol
ReplyDeleteanyways I didnt really celebrate christmas, was playing games like hardcore and miss many moment of christmas, still, I dont really like traffic jam this and that hahaha :P
ReplyDeletenow working la, boxing day work half day la, then no mood to do things la, maybe because my parent nag me too much, boh mood at all . . .
ReplyDeleteand it is lame for me that not to celebrate christmas because takut traffic jam this and that . . . haha, play games is the best choice for me anyways XD
ReplyDeleteHey Fatty, whether you are christians or Hindu, we Malaysians enjoy every festival esp the holidays!
ReplyDeleteWe will still feast with other races and attend their merry making! That is what I like about our country! So rich culture.
ReplyDeleteI also attended a friend's Christmas party and he ordered a huge turkey costing RM380 per bird!
ReplyDeleteThere were only 12 of us and we could not finish. Next day the host and family were flying to Hong Kong. Guess what?
ReplyDeleteThey packed half the turkey and other left overs to give them to ME! I was shocked and had to help him discard them as they won't be back till 2012.
ReplyDeleteI will put on weight now!
ReplyDeleteI should slice all the turkey meat and make yummy sandwiches!!
ReplyDeleteMy 2012 resolution is to get healthier and exercise more!
