“Though it’s not going to change their lives, we will order 16 XL pizzas to be delivered to the 50 of them there on any given day,” it continued. “Sometimes a small gesture of support can go a long way to these traumatized, tired and dedicated workers.”

9 brilliantly clever tips to make cooking Christmas dinner this year a BREEZE!
Cooking Christmas dinner can be more stressful than university finals or as relaxing as a week in the Maldives.
Most of us probably find ourselves basting our turkeys somewhere in between these extremes.
Festive fun! You too can love cooking Christmas dinner if you follow Alice’s clever tips!
For me, as a mediocrity (at best) cook, Christmas dinner is one meal I thoroughly enjoy making. I love the Christmas carol accompanying the preparation, I love knowing that I’ve done too many potatoes – an absolute point of pride – and I thoroughly enjoy laboring over the extra dishes and vegetables that I’d never include alongside a normal Sunday lunch, such as red cabbage and sprouts.
Years of practice have helped shape my positive attitude. Here are my top tips for making the whole process a breeze.
1. Think of it as a large Sunday roast.
This is how I get around the stress of knowing that I am feeding large numbers of people, some of whom are better cooks than me. I also include: ‘Who cares if you get it wrong, everyone will have a glass of Champagne by the time they sit down,’ in my personal Christmas Day pep talk to himself at 7am as I get out the peeler.
2. Save on washing up and have canapés instead of plated starters.
I always do smoked salmon on brown bread, and then invest in shop bought mini quiches (life’s too short) that I heat up and pass around with a glass of something before hand.
3. Do too many potatoes.
Do way more potatoes than you think the assembled masses of your family could possibly eat. Then do some more. It’s impossible to over-estimate the quantity. Besides, they are excellent when heated up and eaten on Boxing Day. Just remember to make sure you have an enormous pan or two available for par-boiling before roasting. Ninja® ZEROSTICK® Cookware has some fabulously large pots and pans for family-size catering.
The most wonderful time of the year… but only if you’ve got organized in advance!
4. Write everything down, working backwards.
Do a 24 hour countdown, from prepping on the previous day to the final, triumphant carving of the turkey.
If you do this on Christmas Eve morning, it’s a great prompt for realizing that you’ve forgotten a vital ingredient and popping out to the supermarket while it’s still open Or send someone else out; you are already doing plenty of work.
5. Are your non-stick saucepans now actually…rather sticky?
Investing in new cookware is something we do so rarely, but the right pots and pans make an enormous difference to the end result.
I know that the right cookware gives me more confidence in the outcome of any meal, including this – the most important meal of the year.
Rather than non-stick, go non-stress with Ninja® ZEROSTICK® Cookware. Perhaps a little pre-Christmas gift to yourself is in order – just to make life easier.
6. Directly related to the above….Do you have enough pans?
If you’re more used to cooking for a couple, or a family of four, then you might wish to invest in a couple of larger items. Here, Ninja® ZEROSTICK® Cookware is perfect. Their cookware is incredibly versatile, so a pan that you might use for carrots for 15 will be just as useful for January family meals. The nine in one PossiblePan will steam, simmer, roast, braise, bake, sauté, sear, boil and fry.
7. Roast potatoes in advance.
This is a top tip from an older relative, who was horrified when I started peeling potatoes one Christmas morning. ‘Haven’t you done them already?’ she gasped. The advice stuck.
You can also make red cabbage, gravy and mashed potatoes in advance, as well as peeling the vegetables and leaving them in pans of cold water overnight. I found an online tip recommending that you make your cranberry sauce in advance, but that’s next level cooking. It’s jars all the way in our house.
Rope in other people to help you prepare for Christmas lunch – mayb
8. Make space and clean the fridge.
This is the time to ditch old condiments that are a couple of years out of date, plus any aging veg lingering at the bottom of a drawer.
Create as much shelf space as you can. On many occasions I’ve had the Christmas food delivery arrive and had to clear out the fridge while unpacking. Or I’ve tried to stuff leftovers into an already brimming fridge on Christmas afternoon. Not fun.
9. Don’t forget the foil!
Don’t forget to buy more foil than you think you’ll need, and perhaps an extra potato peeler or two, if you think you can rope in a few helpers.
And make sure you’re very clear, right from the
Jalen Hurts Cooking as Eagles Overcome Sloppiness to Lead Titans
PHILADELPHIA – Despite a sloppy first half in which the Eagles committed five false start penalties, the offense moved the ball well enough to grab the first-half lead, 21-10, against the Tennessee Titans at Lincoln Financial Field on Sunday.
Jalen Hurts was on target for two long touchdowns throws and added another rushing, this one from two yards out with 51 seconds to play in the second quarter.
The Eagles QB now has 19 passing touchdowns and nine rushing to surpass his total TDs from last year. He now has 28 touchdowns after putting up 26 in 2021.
He hit DeVonta Smith from 34 yards away in the first quarter then, early in the second, he connected with AJ Brown from 40 yards out to take a 14-7 lead with 13:55 to play in the second quarter.
Brown’s TD came one play after a TD throw to Brown was overturned after it had ruled a touchdown. It was the right call with one of Brown’s feet out by just inches near the goal line.
It was the receiver’s first game against the Titans, who was drafted in the second round in 2109 and traded him to Philly on the first night of last spring’s NFL draft.
He ended the half with 61 yards and a TD on three receptions.
Smith had four catches for 93 yards and a TD. He is bidding for his first 100-yard receiving game since Week 4 vs. Washington when he had a career-high of 169.

Hurts completed 18 of 25 throws for 268 yards and a passer rating of 133.4.
Derrick Henry, who was held to 39 yards on the ground by the Bengals last week, had just 21 yards on seven carries.
In a statistical anomaly, Tennessee QB Ryan Tannehill had three runs for 34 yards, including an 8-yard run on fourth-and-seven at the Eagles 40 that kept alive their touchdown march that ended with a 25-yard throw to rookie WR Treylon Burks.
The Eagles scored first taking their opening drive and sticking it in the end zone on the throw to Smith. It marked the fifth time in the last six games the Eagles scored on their first possession
Brown’s TD gave Philly a 14-7 lead with 13:55 to go in the second quarter.
Defensively, the Eagles sacked Tannehill three times, with Javon Hargrave notching his eighth. That is a new career high for the defensive tackle, which led the fans to vote for his position in the NFC in the first batch of Pro Bowl ballots released last week.
Hargrave became the first Eagles DT to notch seven-plus sacks in back-to-back seasons since Corey Simon did it in 2000 and 2001.
Fletcher Cox had his fifth of the season and Josh Sweat now has 5.5 this year after bringing Tannehill down to force a 36-yard field goal that cut the Titans’ deficit to 14-10 with 3:28 to play in the first half.
The Eagles were penalized nine times for 60 yards.
