A quiet one for us this year, I've planned for everything to be as easy as possible.
Friday: all the shopping's done, so it's just the house for a quick whiz round.
Saturday: apart from the washing a nice and easy day.
Sunday: I always do something nice for dinner, this year it's meatballs with pasta plus garlic bread. All washed down with a bottle of bubbly to start the celebrations off.
Christmas Day: it's just the two of us, but I don't mind. We'll have turkey and all the trimmings without having to stick to a timetable which will be nice. I'm not a big drinker, but it's the one day in the year I have more than a couple lol Looking forward to sitting in front of the box in the evening, lots of good programmes, Doctor Who, Strictly, Call the Midwife, Victoria and Mrs Brown's Boys.
Boxing Day: Z,M and the boys will be here, we'll do the pressies round the tree with them and I'll do my traditional boxing day food, cold turkey and ham, a huge bubble and squeak (a big family favourite) pigs in blankets, plus peas and a selection of pickles. Have already got the puds from M&S, the boys don't like Christmas pudding so it's trifle, very berry cheesecake, chocolate profiteroles and mince pies if they've got any room left.
Really looking forward to it
