Prepping mainly for tomorrow and Christmas Day.

Had pastry not playing ball
In need of a sit down but the kitchen looks like a bomb site

"Been doing my friend's Christmas shopping.
She has her own business and got really busy over the last few days and can't afford to turn work away.
So it's mates to the rescue!  "
What a lovely thing to do, good friends like you are hard to come by, bless you |

They are. Which is why I said no problem. Good friends are amazing and I'd walk over hot coals for mine. |

"Oh. And being the bane of some poor waiters sunday!
First I refused to sit by the loos then I sent my ham sandwich back for a lack of ham! 
I can feel his glower warming my back.  "
He's going to hate me even more. It's still not right! |

I popped around to see a couple of people I know and exchanged prezzies, then spent a productive couple of hours tidying the garden whilst it has been bright, mild and dry.
I am now looking up the best places to buy sleeping bags before getting ready to go out for a meal and bevvies. |

Stayed at a friends last night, went to Bristol to change the shoes he bought me for Christmas, and do some shopping, came home, bolognese done and cooling in tubs ready to freeze, shepherds pie mix cooking at the moment; some for dinner today and some for the freezer. Was going to make chicken fricasee but think I have done enough cooking and will rest this evening and do it tomorrow instead after shopping |

We have just been for a pint to raise a glass to our dearly departed friend,
My ex is kind of refusing to acknowledge it or talk about it, I'm a bit worried, it's gonna hit him hard when it finally sinks in xx |

The duck has been marinated and sitting in the spare fridge ready for Christmas Day.
Prepared the two sauces I shall have with the nibbles.
Still need to make the chocolate truffles tonight, should not take long to roll them out.
Enjoying a Long Island Ice Tea while waiting for the pig in blankets to cook as dinner tonight.
Happy day. |

He wasnt in a good place, and obviously thought it was his only course. Anger is part of the grieving process, let your grief out. Xx |
