No starter and no pudding, first time I've not had Chrissy pud.

We had the usual turkey, roasties,pigs seasoning,carrots and sprouts. I find I can't eat much these days, I tend to graze more.
 
Traditional Christmas meal for me too with all the trimmings and one of the best I've ever had... my daughter-in-law really did us proud thumb.gif
 
Melon with port followed by roast saddle of roe deer with scandinavian red cabbage, sprouts, roast potatoes and roast carrots. Dessert was a ginger trifle, alsace fizzy and still wines to wash it down. I usually really enjoy what I have cooked but for some odd reason I didn’t have much of an appetite even though I didn’t bother with lunch. Looking forward to roast lamb at my daughter’s tomorrow.
 
Parked at the side of the river at Aysgarth turkey, mash potatoes, roast potatoes, roast parsnips, carrots, sprouts and gravy. Bottle of wine and mint chocs and very nice it was too. Van trimmed up and fairy lights in the windows.
 
At daughters, 2 x greylag geese shot last week by yours truely with the usual compliment of vegetables.
I have to say wild game and wildfowl far superior to the farm reared variety.
Had prawn cocktail starters and had to give the desert a miss as well and truely stuffed.
 
Turkey crown with the usual trimmings no starter but Christmas pud and brandy sauce to follow and very tasty it was too
 
Roast chicken

As always
but with stuffing of breadcrumbs, onion, cooked and diced potato, and fresh pineapple (diced again)
Steamed cauliflower roast UK and Thai potato baked potato
Cocktails and beer and red wine
:wave::beer:
 
Salmon and prawns to start, roast lamb with roast honey glazed carrots and parsnips, sprouts and green beans followed by chocolate tart, all washed down with a bottle of Prosecco and a Cote de Rhone. Today is venison steak and wedgies. The rest of the week will be lamb, lamb, lamb and the roast gammon we cooked and haven't touched yet.
 
Superb dinner at Chez Jules French restaurant in Edinburgh.

Starter - 6 snails in garlic butter
Mains - Coquilles St Jacques
Pudding - cheese board

Plenty of French bread and salad and washed down with a few bottles of Pinot Noir

All topped off with not having to do any washing up!

Saddle of hare, shredded sprouts with crispy bacon, chestnuts and fried bread crumbs, parsnip and spud mash, carrots and celery cooked in orange juice and butter, reduced to a glaze.

Whisky orange Xmas pud with brandy sauce.

Bottle of Barolo
Half bottle of pudding wine.
Two stonking gins.
Two IPA's
A whisky.

Very traditional with Seafood salad starter and the sprouts fried with bacon and chestnuts the only deviation was something I discovered a couple of years ago that haggis makes great stuffing
 
Breakfast was a couple of Oatabix mashed in warm milk, Dinner was very sloppy scrambled eggs, evening meal back to the Oatabix. Gf has gone out today to get soup, as she chucked out the juicer earlier this year. Fingers crossed a non penicillin antibiotic will keep things under control until I go in for minor surgery.
Don't feel too sorry, I did have a 'proper' Christmas meal t'other week, salmon starter, turkey main (I'm all for 'tradition'), and Christmas pud.
