Cooking for others!My other half does the cooking on christmas day for myself and our two children (6 and 1). We dont like to go anywhere so that the kids can play with their toys so its a snuggle pj day. I always say i dont mind if anyone wants to visit us (grandparents etc) but im not going anywhere as i like to enjoy a drink with my breakfast, lunch and dinner!

Dec 25th is officially a NCD (No Cook Day) - food will be Kettle crips, mince pies and lychees washed down with copious cava and the odd G&T.

Going to others for meal (domestic)I'm going to my parents. At least I don't have to get all the food in. Money saving. Former Debt free wannabe. Now trying to save for a rainy day!0

Going to others for meal (domestic)I go to my parents house every year, and my brothers and sister all go there too.
I take my partner (none of us has kids yet), and this year my OH's mum is even coming. Full house and dad cooks for us all, although we'll all chip in and help where we can.0 -
Just 'Puss' n 'me' so I'm not really sure yet. Perhaps a small joint of meat. (crown, chicken, beef, or try Aldi 3 bird?)
