We cooked chicken curry and sprouts in a transit van whilst quaffing a glass of champagne it's the only way to do Christmas. angel1

1st course Game Tarts with cold roast venison and quince. 2 smoked salmon parcels stuffed with crab, apple, spring onions and other stuff. 3. Passion fruit sorbet. 4 roast duck legs with roast potatos, honey glazed carrots and mixed mushrooms. 5 Caneton a la presse (duck breasts in a foie gras, marsala and cognac sauce.) 6 lemon cheesecake with homemade vanilla ice cream and Pedro Ximinez sherry (utterly gorgeous!). Cheese and biscuits next.

Just fine thanks. 8)

As mental christmas's go its been great. Purchased three fake trees lights x 3 baubles x3 prior to getting here. Any doubts that the  children had relating to my sanity were finally dispelled.

I do christmas bags/stockings for nearest and dearest they contain bits and bobs collected during the year + sweets chocolates and cake.
 Mr C has a son who is about the same age as my  daughter one (25) Mr Cs wife died 5 years ago. This morning I received a Christmas stocking from Mr Cs son containing stuff relevant for me. I was very touched.
