Another one! That makes 5 invites I've had for Xmas dinner. All my family know I prefer to spend Xmas day on my own, but it don't stop 'em offerin' to either prepare a meal or fetch me round to theirs.
That's a quality offer Ron, but I'll stick to my usual thanks.
PS If you're a descendent of the original Scrooge, I ought to let you know I expelled him from my school for being too cheerful!Comment

No family or gathering of friends for dinner this year as we adhere to the restriction of movements ala Covid. It will be a challenge to cook a Christmas spread for just the three of us. Have to rule out turkey...don't want sandwiches for the next week or so. Will substitute it with oven baked chicken in caramel and honey sauce. Roast beef can be portioned. Family stuffing prepared loose and unstuffed normally taste better re-heated the next few days so extras is always welcomed. I can spend more time sauteeing the baby carrots and asparagus in olive oil seasoning and my salads and cold cuts.
No doubt it will be nice and close this year but quiet.
Cheers,

A nice bucks fizz while the kids open the presents. A few beers and maybe a brandy chaser while cooking then onto a nice bottle of Rioja ....oh and a handful of quality street to keep the sugar levels up

A beautiful goose who is still walking around to be "harvested" two days before Christmas
and a massive fresh ham again still walking around...we'll get to her in a day or two.
A big job that one, will put the boys on it, they will do all the prep work and the
"maestro" of the blade will make the final cuts....Guess who that is
18 of us to get together.....If Cuomo don't like it he can come and get us...or go to Hell!
hopefully the later.
We will also deliver some meals to some of our elderly "co-conspirators" as always on Thanksgiving and Christmas.
May you all over there have a Merry Christmas despite our "masters" who I'm sure will be
violating all the dictates they force on us....so what else is new?
