Cooking for others!Im cooking for others which I love doing at anytime of the year :j It is technically my mums turn to do dinner but with us having 3 kids (8,5,1) its just easier to stay at ours so my mum is having me cook but she is paying for all the food so just leaves me to take care of the wine :beer:0

OH will be cooking for me, him, our 2 girls and my parents. We alternate with my parents one year then the next year my parents go to my sisters and we invite OH's mum and step dad who don't come! I won't go to anyone else as I think it's better for my children at their own house.0

Going to others for meal (domestic)You forgot the "working" option - I've got this Christmas off, but often I cook and eat Christmas dinner at work with the people I support. Not the same as a proper christmas meal with friends and family though - not allowed to drink for starters.
Unless that falls into the cooking for others option?All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.
Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.0 -
