Roast Dinner.

What shall I roast today? Come and help me decide. :D


Choices are...

Beef with yorkshire pud, roast potatoes, veg, gravy and horseradish sauce.

Chicken, sage and onion stuffing, pigs in blankets, roast potaoes, veg, bread sauce and gravy.

Pork and crackling, sage and onion stuffing, roast potaoes, veg, gravy and apple sauce.

I would love lamb, but that isn't an option as Merlin doesn't like lamb. :(

Dessert will most likely be apple pie and custard, if I can be bothered to make the pastry, lmao.:rotfl:
I live in my own little world, but it's ok as everyone knows me here :)
