I love hammocks- proper hammocks. My FIL had one that was wonderful. Then I got one, and it didn't have a board across the end to hold it open side to side, so as soon as I got into it it closed up like a bloody taco. I never have gotten around to putting a board in it, so it doesn't get used.
Not a clue. Probably not having much of a feast.
I loved those things! I used to get into them and eat them by the handful. And, guess what! They never made me sick! (they were illegal because they have/had real metal in them, and could make you sick if you ate something like 20 bottles of them all at once) I don't have a bottle- I settled for sprinkles because the dragees were way too expensive.
I know I encountered several when I was a kid, but I don’t remember actually sleeping in one, just playing.
Beef roast. Beef is so expensive these days, it’s mostly a special occasion meal.
Wow. Memories. I still lived in California when that lawsuit was filed. And, no, I don’t keep them around since they’re supposed to be used as decoration only, not consumed.
I've laid in a hammock, but the shape of a hammock isn't good for my back in the long term, so - no napping there.
Christmas dinner: ham, scalloped potatoes, tossed salad, steamed broccoli and pie (which we're going to purchase and I'm not sure what kind we'll get)
I don't have any now, but my mom decorated cookies with them when I was a kid. Yikes, they were hard -- perfect for breaking teeth! LOL! I wonder if they were against the law because someone could choke on them. I don't know....
I have never tried to nap in a hammock - I doubt I would manage to get in or out gracefully, but they do look comfy!
We are having goose, as we traditionally do! Different recipe every year. This year's called for a Greek wine we had to special-order. Can't wait to taste it!
I didn't know silver dragees were illegal in CA for a long time! I lived in San Diego for a couple years during high school - wonder if they were allowed then? I can't remember if I have any around or not - I usually just buy multicolored sprinkles because I love bright colors.

Ham with a to be determined glaze, sweet potatoes, green bean casserole, stuffing, and dessert. We're so not ready.
Nope.
