Christmas Dinner
Do you tend to have the same Christmas dinner every year and if so what do you have?, if you change it every year what's on you menu this time?
We tend to have the same Prawn cocktail; turkey with roast, sprouts, carrots and pigs in blankets and I like lots of stuffing (ohh er matron!)
So what's on your plate this Christmas?

Three bird roast, stuffing, pigs in blankets , mash , roast parsnips and carrots , sprouts with chestnuts and bacon , Yorkshire pudding and turkey gravy
Black forest yule log (prob not till few hours later)
@66Mustang we eat around 3-4pm but couldn't go all that way with nothing so will probably have some toast with some whisky marmalade we got from m&s last week...yum
turkey, gammon, beef, roasties, mash, parsnips, carrots, turnip, sprouts, cauliflower, broccoli, three stuffings, three gravies and Yorkshire puddings
Chocolate sponge cake with custard
(And a 2 hour nap)
Over the years we have tried different meats and poultry. I prefer boxing day, with a buffet, including any left over meat/poultry from Christmas Day. However my favourite meal is usually on the 27th. Slices of gammon, potatoes mixed with cheese and onions and some pickles. My favourite Christmas dinner to date was the year we had very little money and I refused to get a loan, so we had a mixed grill with mushrooms cooked in bacon fat. I would probably be just as happy with mushrooms cooked in bacon fat
This year its steak dinner Christmas Eve to celebrate our daughter's birthday and turkey, carrots, sprouts, roast potatoes, yorkshire pud with a mixed fruit salad and double cream for desert several hours later. The best thing about Turkey for me is not the main meal, but rather picking at the carcas when most of the meat has been sliced off.
I wonder if I could get away with suggesting Haggis for next year??
As an individual I stood alone.
As a member of a group I did things.
As part of a community I helped to create change!
Hoping it'll be turkey, roasties, mash, pigs in blankets, Yorkshires, the usual veg and croquettes. With bucks fizz of course
Pudding? Cheese cake I guess

I always have a croissant with butter for breakfast. And the last few years have discovered 'brioche baguettes' which I have for tea in the evening with some cranberry stilton, a few Tesco finest crinkle crisps (better than Kettle Chips imo!) and a Mr Kipling Xmas cake slice. Tbh, I prefer that to the dinner!
There won't be any starters, just diving into the main deal. Potentially a pork joint with stuffing, pigs in blankets, roast potatoes, parsnips, sprouts, carrots, Yorkshire pudding and onion gravy. Dessert for me will be warm mince pies with baileys cream.
