    Another one for croissants and bucks fizz/fresh orange juice, with home made jam, and fresh coffee. Sometimes I squeeze the juice the night before and leave in the fridge, to save time in the morning.

  • Chocolate, sweets, biscuits - whatever has been unwrapped and is edible. I only venture into the kitchen that early in the morning on Christmas Day to put the kettle on :snow_laug

    Really must up my game I think!
  • We are having waffles and maple syrup. Waffles are £1 in asda and you get 6 in a pack.

    Brambini fizz (lambrini and orange juice) last year I couldn't get Buck's Fizz and did this instead loads cheaper and was a hit!!

    You are not alone, I call it breakfast but it's nearer lunchtime really.

    I only make it for those that haven't filled up on the choccies and other goodies that HAVE to be sampled on Christmas morning.

    Do you have your Christmas dinner in the evening perhaps? Ours is served around 1pm, so we have to restrain our full English breakfast instincts. :D

    Pancakes ! :)
  • Probably boiled eggs and toast in between pressies and any goodies they get. We don't eat Christmas Dinner until late afternoon so it works out ok. Its only the four of us and its fairly easy going, just as long as the boys attempt something substantial in between the sweet stuff.


    Our tradition is to have a Christmas Eve teatime party with the extended family then the boys have a small stocking that evening when everyone has gone home, with sweets, pringles and a DVD in (bits they don't normally get). I know their diets go to pot from Christmas eve lunchtime so by the time we have Christmas Dinner they actually fancy something decent to eat.
    This time I haven't smoked since 6th Jan 2014 and still going ok.
    Fingers crossed x
