safneo Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 I miss my daughter being young at Christmas. At 15.5years old she has a serious case of Bah Humbug! No idea where she gets it from! I think I may be an embarrassment to her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReikiAnge Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 Thanks for the photo Marion I forgot to mention we went to our local Christingle service this evening. Due to fire safety we're no longer allowed to have lit christingles inside the church. We were handed out battery powered candles which just wasnt the same. I wonder exactly how many churches burned down *before* battery powered candles were introduced! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just show her the inner child of you and show her you can be young forever as far as Christmas is concerned, I'm 50 next year but still manage to act like a child at Christmas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lil_angel Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 (edited) a collie Marian? or maybe a yorkie - they always go for poor Louie edited to say - well done Andrea I wonder exactly how many churches burned down *before* battery powered candles were introduced! Well I went to Sunday school and was in the nativity play for a number of years and we never had an incident. Although tinsel and candles always used to make my mother nervous.

snow Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 Big hugs to all poorly fugees and their 4 legged companions. My turkey is at the mid way point in it's roasting - just another 2 1/4 hours to go A ton of spuds have been peeled and sliced and are sitting in cold water in the pressure cooker which was the biggest pan I could find to hold them all, half a ton of Brussels sprouts are also peeled and sitting in water in another pot alongside them, a similar amount of carrots are in yet another pan - and thats just for 2 of us in my defence thats for 2 days worth of meals as Boxing Day tradition is for bubble and squeak with cold meats so I have to make extra veg to make sure there are "left overs" for the bubble and squeak Once the turkey is finished I shall make the gravy base which needs to sit overnight and infuse with flavour then tomorrow all I'll need to do is thin it out a bit with the water from the sprouts and carrots. I have decided against doing cabbage and swede as well as sprouts once hubby pointed out the danger of gas explosions following those lethal combinations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am very pleased you are feeling so happy. Julia, nothing wrong with a bit of colour. and I take it you dont like sprouts much? I will get up early tomorrow, but OH will probably beat me to it, to get the veg done. We have a turkey crown for him and my parents so it wont take too long to cook. Not sure what me and Lauren are having yet, probably falafel as not much else she will eat. I may just have another single Baileys. I do have to get up early. SB is there anything anyone here can do to help with 'ransom dog'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
