I've spent the afternoon watching Christmas cooking television. I couldn't resist when I saw the Hairy bikers. They made a baked ham that looked sexy. I want baked ham this Christmas. I've resisted mince pied every day,just had a couple over the last few weeks. I love Brussels sprouts |

Oh no, love the cake but marzipan sets my teeth on edge!
Proper Xmas pudding as well :D
We're going out for meals Xmas Day & Boxing day, so no doubt will be 'snacking' the rest of the time (i.e. eating chocolate & cheese) |

"Xmas pudding mince pies brandy butter
Is it bad if I say sprouts with bacon?"
Sprouts with bacon!!! Yes!!!!!
I don't do turkey in our house it's Lamb, so mint sauce is a must!
Then Boxing Day I just have gammon with mash potatoe, all manner of pickles and more Brussels!! |

My dad used to make sandwiches with our Christmas Leftovers. He would take two slices of bread, put butter on one side, then put in turkey, stuffing, and cranberry sauce, then put gravy on and then the other slice of bread.
When I ate meat, it was heaven!! Give it a go with your leftovers

When you say home fries do you mean chips? Ha even I wouldn't have chips for breakfast.
Also what's over easy eggs - runny ones that you dip soldiers in? |

Home Fries:

Over Easy is basically a fried egg, but where the yolk is still runny, but more cooked than sunny side up.
I don't know what soldiers are. I dip my toast in

Soldiers are toast cut into finger strips, so they can be dipped in a boiled egg. |

"Brussel sprouts are the devils food
I'm an angel and I eat them
As long as you understand there are grave consequences associated with them "
I'm very much a lady and take myself off to the little girls room when needs must. Stuffing affects me more though for some reason |

I've gone right off chocolate the last few years, I think as a child (and they still do) my parents would buy the sweet aisle in the supermarket |

Every year I buy one of those teardrop shape tins of ham, it's disgusting, but I can't help myself lol
I love those marzipan fruits, keep them away from me because I will eat them, and I'll fight anyone who tries to stop me
For breakfast I do apple and cinnamon porridge, it's like having a Christmassy apple pie for breakfast. |
