Time to wash up and clean up in the kitchen

Siding the pots after cooking as well!

Christmas dinner made; three courses all received well from the three now-very-full-and-sleeping recipients. By me. Washing up done. By me.

SWMBO didn't get me any presents apart from the pair of mitts and small sign I gave her to give me . She's had a new PC, wanted the family photo-shoot plus several other things. So I bought a new-to-me carbon frame

Oh, and I'm doing the three-course tea as well apparently 😠 .

Right, that's the main course done and my mother's taking a nap before dessert. I may also do likewise on the sofa/settee/couch (it's so versatile!). Instead of champagne, we had a bottle of Crémant de Bourgogne. Very pleasurabubble.

Having a wonderful Christmas, and a visit from a Red-Tailed Hawk as well. Mass was good, and even Mrs. GA went. Pretty good turn-out when you consider most people go to midnight mass.

Lidl chocolate panettone with double cream from the milkman. I think that might be it for food today.

Was fine and relatively bright early doors - and very mild, but the afternoon turned out wet and windy. And no, I've not been anywhere near the sprouts!

Did not sleep terribly well again, so been feeling distinctly washed out and under the weather. I've had a rough couple of weeks and it's just all caught up with me. But took advantage of it being dry this morning, and hauled a lot of wood into the garage. Wood bins in the house have also been filled up. Had a nice luncheon of cold cuts, cheese, home made cranberry sauce and fruit.

A friend popped round this afternoon for a brew and a chat - and to pick up her share of yesterday's YS goodies.

Now just chilling out and thinking about doing supper. I'm not terribly hungry, but some good food should perk me up, I hope.

Got some lovely gifts; a Covent Garden Soup cook book, a stash of motor racing magazines, posters and a Silverstone press pack, a pair of silly socks, a Grumpy Cat wall calendar that's had me laughing till I cried, the funds for a new flatbed scanner and a lovely vintage Tissot watch.

The girls got loads of treats from various Cuddle Aunts, and they're currently spaced out after mullering the catnip toys they got from their Auntie Linda.

 

[Reynard]

Oh yeah, and the Tesco Lebkuchen assortment... Bought a bag as I didn't fancy baking any this year, but they are just so overwhelmingly sweet to the point that I find them inedible.

Luckily the friend who popped round earlier works at one of the local vets, and they'll find a good home in the staff biscuit tin. The vet nurses apparently are all rather sweet-toothed, so at least they won't go to waste.

Eaten more than I should have done
Seen most of the family
So that's a good Christmas
