Survived boiled Christmas Dinner with the in-laws. I made roasted brussel sprouts. It was a big hit!

I made balsamic and honey drizzled sprouts with some red bell peppers, crispy prosciutto, and shredded parmesan cheese on top. My mother in law kept opening the oven 25 times to make sure the sprouts weren't burning, and she STILL took it out 12 mins before my timer went off and then covered it with foil and put it on top of the little wood burning stove-heater to prevent it from getting cold which essentially steamed the sprouts and turned everything soggy. Despite that, it was still a big hit and the family ate all of the sprouts! With any luck, maybe I'll be allowed to make it again next year! The turkey was done the way they always make it - boiled in a plastic bag that's probably not BPA free, in the oven. The carrots were still boiled to an inch of its life. Whoever said I'm out in the country is correct, the in-laws are on a farm in the middle of nowhere, 2 hours from Dublin.
