Christmas '16

This week ended with Christmas day and we have a whole bunch of pictures from the week. We had the family over, which is our tradition.

And when the family comes over for a holiday, we pull out the bone. With this ham, we mean that literally.

Rubbed down ham

Cold and rain makes the smoker work just right

We had a few frills and dressings with the ham.

"Half Eggs" with home made dill pickles

Our farm raised sweet potatoes with candied pecans (see below)

Smashed potatoes

Fried oysters in the batter stage

Finished product. Cupcake would never eat 'the outlaws' oysters, but she loves these

We made a few goodies. Some for us, some we gifted.

We ended the week with a nap.
