Finally, we have found our Christmas spirit

The tree is up, and decorated to the sounds of a Christmas cd
The mantlepiece is decorated
The Christmas runner is on the sideboard
The 'Snow' cushion cover I made is on its cushion

And I sorted out the freezer to try and make some space - and found 7 little sausage rolls lurking in a bag
Now lurking in tummies
As are a couple of samples of ermm what would they be called? crostini? We're having a sausagey casserole for dinner (half saved from Weds) so I made some cheese & onion bread. Made 2 long thin loaves, then when cold sliced and re-baked, brushed with oil. Ooh they're lovely, had to shove them in the freezer before Bb ate the lot!

It all sounds lovely Di

It still doesn't feel like Christmas here

But well done you for getting everything sorted

We're pretty much sorted - just a final shop on Monday for fruit and veg - oh yes, and the turkey crown to pick up from the farm shop on Sunday. Mustn't forget that!

You doing all the cooking Ossie?

Or are you making a chair for Mrs O

At least you're having more than hot-dogs and onions we lived on that for about a week, I think

Bah humbug is no more

That all sounds really lovely Di - the decorations and the food!

I've got a full freezer too, I've had to remove the top drawer to get the turkey in and now everything is just piled in and falls out whenever the door is opened. Roll on Monday when I can take the turkey out!

Lol yes Jo, we've a big turkey breast joint (1kg) in there, which I shall cook either Christmas day or early Boxing day, and a gammon joint, and that prawn ring in its big box which is for the 27th.
Today we took out a small baguette for lunch which is why I knew there would be room for the new bread

We've got a 1.6kg gammon joint in there too. That'll come out perhaps on Monday too, ready to be cooked on Tuesday. I can then get some bread and rolls on Monday
