I've stuck to Buck's Fizz so far. Beef in slow cooker, gammon boiling, veg prepped & oven on ready to heat goose fat for potatoes & parsnips. I've never cooked Christmas on my own before so fingers crossed!! I don't actually care if it's inedible - I'm the happiest I've been I years & we can just eat Pringles & profiteroles instead |

I've just woken up from a couple of hours sleep. Turkey cooked last night,daughter has cooked the lamb and the pork is in now. I think I'm sticking to tea today. |

As we had breakfast so late, ie noon, dinner has been postponed until five ... we are up at four am to fly out for a week, so we have to eat all the leftovers today ... Mr is currently forehead down on the dining room table after celebrating with a bottle of wine. The dinner is looking good though ... all making progress! |

I am stuffed. The turkey was a highlight alongside my fabulous stuffing.
I prepared mine before consuming a bottle of Prosecco and got the lad to finish it off. He used his new spring loaded pump action potato masher which as predicted, is probably the best gift I have ever got him. |

Have to say I've surprised myself & pulled it off!! The boys even ate vegetables without being asked!! I'm so happy I could cry. Best Christmas since 2011 x |
