We had one of the best Christmas days ever though it was a lot of hard work. Mountains of food and even though we had started preparation the night before we were still cooking side dishes and consulting lists till the last minute. The yorskshire puds were the last to come out of the oven. They were gulped down by everyone even though the recipe had to be severely tweaked because my scale decided to give up the ghost and 150 grams of flour turned into, I'm not sure how much, but far too much. Something has to go wrong. We forgot the garlic bread too darn it. It stayed in the oven.

Fun times! Your Santa is quite cute :-) I put the spanikopita in the oven, I'm just waiting for it to be crispy and browned! Yum!
ReplyDeleteI'll tell Santa. he will be happy to hear he's cute!
DeleteMmm spanakopita hot from the window oven. What a wonderful vision!
Sounds perfect!
ReplyDeleteThank goodness everyone enjoyed themselves. No arguments and too much drinking
DeleteSounds like a great day
ReplyDeleteAnd it isn’t Christmas unless something gets left in the oven. I do it every year lol
Too much darn food. That's why I have a list and something still gets left behind. I can imagine your feasts are very similar!!
DeleteSounds like a perfect day and getting the wood stacked an extra bonus.
ReplyDeleteWe didn't expect anyone would have energy to haul wood but they made it into a , rather tiring, game and got it done. Brilliant
DeleteLovely Christmas Day here too. Lots of hard work, with muggins rushing around trying to do 10 things at once!!! The kids had a ball.
ReplyDeleteJust as it should be!! We were all rather tired by the end of the day but certainly full of joy
DeleteSounds like a Christmas to remember with a smile.
ReplyDeleteYou know, it is years since I last played Trivial Pursuits, we used to have so much fun with it.
We have an old trivial and boy are some things of those questions archaic. My mother would have been able to answer them all but not me
DeleteWhat a great way to celebrate Christmas. Your garden is looking very verdant too by the way. Good leftovers management too - you will be able to be eating something different by New Year!
ReplyDeleteThe garden is full of clover/sorell/weeds . I live it . Verdant is great. The front garden is slightly more controlled, clover and nasturtiums
DeleteWhat a lovely way to enjoy Christmas. Family, fun and good food.
ReplyDeleteFamily fun. All the grandkids get on well thank goodness
DeleteGreat idea to organise a firewood chain. Sounds like a good time was had by all.
ReplyDeleteA good time was had even hauling wood!
DeleteI hope you all had a great day, we are trying to get through the leftovers here. I've never tried to make yorkshire puddings those, are they easy?
ReplyDeleteMy daughter Elli makes the puds. Very easy, if you measure the flour correctly.
DeleteYou make a sort of pancake batter and pour it into smoking hot muffin tins. They puff up and are delicious
Sounds like a great day Linda.
ReplyDelete'Twas indeed. Might do it again next year
