__________________ Let it be understood that Apostolic Friends Forum is an Apostolic Forum.
Apostolic is defined on AFF as:
There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
Every sinner must repent of their sins.
That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.
Homemade fried pies are nothing like any at McDonald's.

My son and new daughter-in-law (they've been married 4 mos) invited us to their house for the big day.
I had it easy: cranberry sauce, apple cider,tablecloths and bakery vegan cupcakes, that I picked up yesterday.
DIL and her mother fixed turkey, stuffing, sweet potatoes with pineapple, corn, green beans, rolls, mashed potatoes and gravy, Ham, and vegan pumpkin pie.
I'm still stuffed! She did a great job!
(the stove top was in use so my son heated the cider on the grill outdoors)

I think that's everything. But I can't swear to it.
Our crowd was smaller this year than normal. Several nieces and nephews were out of state (none of them together. Imagine!) Christmas will be bigger. Can't wait!

Homemade fried pies are nothing like any at McDonald's.
Amen, sistah!! Although I do like the ones at McDs too. These homemade ones are apricot and are deep fried, so the crust puffs up. My husband loves them - I'd rather have pan fried ones, but it's his once a year indulgence, so I give in.

My hunch is that deep-fried things, though not health food by any stretch, get a bad rap: Not very much of the fat is absorbed in the food, if it is done properly. Pan frying may actually be worse, as far as absorption goes. Also, I bet it depends on the fat: peanut oil isn't as bad for you as, say, lard. Is it?
