I reckon ours will be pretty boring and traditional.

Christmas Eve:
Breakfast: Toast/Cerial/whatever
Lunch: Will be in a cafe somewhere, after a walk.
Tea: *whispers* Princes tinned meat - it wouldn't be xmas without Cheese, Crackers, Pork Pie, Sausage Rolls

Christmas Day: OH always has toasted bacon sandwich on Saturdays and this won't change Toast/whatever for me
Lunch: Turkey and all the rest of it.
Tea: As day before

Boxing Day: Same as Christmas Eve

and repeat but with cold Turkey :rotfl:

Christmas eve:

Breakfast: american style blueberry pancakes, with chopped strawberries and raspberries in a warm cream and drizzled on top.

Lunch: Honey and lemon chicken skewers and salad

Dinner: Chinese takeaway usually.

Christmas day:

Breakfast: Nigellas breakfast muffins

Lunch: Roast turkey, roast lamb. With roast potatoes, pigs in blankets, yorkshire puddings, broccoli, honey glazed carrots, roasted sweet potato, stuffing, pickled red cabbage and gravy.

Dinner: kids will have a sandwich more than likely, adults with probably have alcohol except myself ( non-drinker)

Desserts: There will be a choice, chocolate fudge cake with vanilla icecream, christmas pudding with brandy butter cream, christmas cake, trifle.

Boxing day:

Just a wee bit planned here.

Christmas eve tea is now pasta (from Ikea in the shape of Reindeer!!!) with a hm pasta sauce and cheese. Perhaps a yogurt for pudding.

Christmas day breakfast - coffee and paracetamol (to ward off the childrens screaming!!), lunch will be nibbly - smoked salmon & soda bread as we're off to my BILs for the main meal and he doesn't do fish!

Main meal will be about 2-3 pm and will be turkey etc.

Boxing day - no idea as we're at MILs, so as I've provided most of the stuff for Christmas day meal I'll leave it to them. Do like to get back to normal eating as soon as poss though as otherwise the children won't eat so much x
