Christmas Eve…
Well today is the day before the big day!
We had plans not to get Amie too excited, unfortunately that failed miserably so I think we might be in for an early morning wake up call!
We went to Grandma and Grandads today to pick up the meat. Thanks Richard who supplied us with a humungous turkey (might be nipping over the road to hijack their oven!), sausage meat, sausages in bacon, sausages and bacon for our brekkie, diced turkey thigh, cooked ham and a huge block of pate….we wont need to shop for a while!
We had lunch with them and then came home to get ready for the big man’s arrival and to get Bethany off to bed.
The girls and Daddy watched polar express (it has to be watched on Christmas Eve) while I got the veggies and stuffing ready for tomorrow.
By the looks of it, we might have to invite a few more people to eat the food I have laid on!
If all goes to plan, we’ll have prawn cocktail or soup for starters followed by citrus roasted turkey with nicely spiced sausagemeat stuffing, roast potatoes and sweet potatoes with Rosemary, red cabbage in cider and apple, caramalised carrots with red onion, buttered leeks, broccoli, peas and yourkshire puds…..
Amie left a present for Father Christmas tonight, he had a cookie, mince pie, a huuuugggggeeee glass of whiskey and a carrot for Rudolph. By the looks of the crumbs, it was very much enjoyed!
