| 509306 | 2006-12-25 02:31:00 | 20 course breakfast, Just finished, seemed to take ours, My belly is so sore and bloated, can barely swallow the cashew nuts and mussels I am now snacking on in preparation of the triple roast we are going to in a couple of hours. Breakfast consisted of Pancakes with pears and honey milk Eggs Benedict Scrambled eggs Bacon all sorts of different sausages Salmon Mushrooms Wine Plus much much more Followed by multiple deserts And then topped off with snack foods home made sweets. I want to explode. Man, Im such a fat happy bastard right now. |

| 509310 | 2006-12-25 09:23:00 | We had home made rice wrappers rolls (rice flour in a liquid steamed into a semi transparent flour pastry) - with stuffings inside it. Dinner wasn't big, prawns, some stir fry veges and a roast duck. We have a prepared belly pork crackling ready in the fridge for another night - just need to oven bake it :D And some nice soup - one ingredient from lobster casings/head for flavour. Best present - the family Xmas dinner. I bought myself some wireless gears as just got BB which was nice as it was something I thought of getting but its not something you do just for Xmas that you can enjoy and have fun. I think a computer game would of been neat :p just like the olden days, we would go to the store on Xmas Eve and choose a game and spend like over an hour or two choosing. Xmas cartoons and family shows are great :D |

Or those new-fangled abacus things made of wood for the well off. Oh well, ham & turkey sandwiches for a week or two now. Heh, same for a few neighbours, but they don't know yet. ;) I hope they don't want to dump their blasted food scraps here though :mad: |

That looks an absolutely wonderful Christmas dinner, stu. Just one thing missing - a credit for the cook. As I doubt it was you, how about a mention of who did the hard yards & the planning to produce it? (Just having a "Mums are often unappreciated" moment here - and no, I didn't have to slog, but had an easy ride eating out, no nothing personal) Maybe it wasn"t actually your Mum who produced it, but I'm just feeling protective of all those women who worked their backsides off to give families a traditional Christmas dinner. Mostly taken for granted. So there... |

| 509315 | 2006-12-26 07:48:00 | The retirement home that I am voluntary working there has already had their Christmas dinner a little bit earlier. This is what Santa had: jamesfiles.dannz.net.nz(8).JPG For the rest of us, we had what the Santa had minus the turkey's leg. He said that for the first time he has been defeated by the turkey's leg as he used to be able to finish it, but not this year :D Anyway, at home we don't celebrate Christmas. As such, we didn't have any spectacular dinner during yesterday's evening. :P Cheers :) Merry Xmas and a happy new year |
