    It was a nice surprise you took the trouble to answer in so much detail.

    Fabulous, glad I could help. I'm sure your stuffing will be amazing for Christmas, I tend to think when you remember recipes that you remember the bits you particularly like and then any personal tweaks make is especially yours.

    Last night we had Moroccan style cottage pie with carrots and cauliflower. Tonight, we're having cod in parsley sauce with new potatoes and peas.

    Just done my Christmas Cooking - I am taking home made cranberry sauce (less sweet than the store bought kind), and a caramelised onion and goats cheese tart that just needs reheating. Made an extra little tart with leftovers for my lunch, and it was delish!

    As such, I am all cooked out today and will have something chucked in the oven for dinner.

    Merry Christmas everyone!
