How I became the matriarch of the in-law clan is beyond me. I'm not even the eldest female. I guess it's because I'm a decent cook and people feel at home here. Still, Christmas morning is the ultimate honor and responsibility of family tradition. Just what are they going to do without me;)
If you host Christmas morning, I have a couple of little short cuts for you to employ to leave you more relaxed and able to enjoy your company.
If you are cooking a huge, traditional breakfast with bacon and sausage, bake the bacon and sausage in the oven at 400* for about 20 minutes (or until nicely browned) on cookie sheets a day or so ahead of time and store in refridgerator. Use aluminum foil on cooke sheets for easy clean up. On Christmas morning put your bacon and sausage in separate 9x13 baking dishes and warm in the oven at about 275* until ready to use.
You will be amazed how that one step will save you stress and mess Christmas morning.
