Mince pie... It's been getting harder and harder to find mince pies
around here but this year I found one that actually included meat - in
this case chuck roast. Found it in an Amish bakery in Indiana. I think
its the first time I've had genuine "mince meat" pie and it was very good!

We pretty much match you for that.
I never work between Christmas and New Year (with one exception).
This year my wife chose to take a couple of weeks off to recharge
after a hectic last few months of the year, so we spent the whole
two weeks just lazing around the house doing nothing much except
playing games or watching movies.
We don't have any family out here (my brother lives in Texas, but
apart from that almost all our relatives are back in England), so
Christmas day itself isn't a big thing. We do still cook ourselves
a traditional turkey dinner, and we make lots of other nice items
(mince pies, veal ham and egg pie, Dundee cake, etc.) to snack on
during the off-work break.
On New Year's Eve we did consume a bottle of champagne-in-all-but-
name over the course of the evening, but we didn't bother to stay
up until midnight.
