Spiritually speaking... What foods do you serve at Christmas brunch/lunch/dinner?

Melbourne. Same temp as you guys lol. Buffet too, cold meats, fruit/greens/potato salads, some Hungarian food from my nan, and an English pud from my grandma, random other foods, lots of cold drinks (alcoholic and non). We always have too much food at the table and only about 10-15 people.

We have - catholic/roman catholic, church of England, non denominational born again christians, a few people who i'm not sure what they believe, and atheistic pagan (me).

But apart from grace at the table there is not religious stuff going on. They can all do that in their own church elsewhere.

We have a big dinner for all our family and friends. Turkey. ham. potatoes, salad, have to have our sweet potatoes also. and then desert. U.S.A. Is it really that warm out there to where you can go to the beach, it is not warm here where I am at and by the time Christmas is here then the snow will be here. Blessings

Spiritually speaking the only thing to do is to not offend a weaker believer ... the only unique day in the new relationship with God is Sunday ... known as the Lord's day ... most Christian celebrate Christmas ... and that can be good ... but, since Jesus is the only way to God ... we celebrate Him on a daily basis ...

I live in Texas. Our Christmas starts around noon and we snack all day. We have tamales, chili, enchiladas, rice, beans, cheese dip, chips, and different desserts.

I'm Australian too and BBQ's and cold seafood buffets are the go.

i'll just toss another Aussie on the Barbie ~ ~ *
