Your mince pie...Happy Christmas to you both, Lynn. Your mince pies look fab, mum was an expert at making these too. I have discovered Lyons Farm Sainsburys instore bakery shortcrust ones are really nice, and as good as homemade, don't tell Stella but I shall probably put these out over Christmas sprinkled with a little extra icing sugar, I shant tell if you don't! I shall be using parsnips out of the garden, that's if they are not full of holes, I have got swedes too, but they don't look that good, so I have bought one as back up. I am just going to make a huge trifle for Christmas Day, not bothering with a Christmas pudding this year, but shall be supplying plenty of cream! Happy New Year. xLouisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03800196831833931842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25664512.post-4525992539791316572007-12-22T13:25:00.000+00:002007-12-22T13:25:00.000+00:00Just finished my food shopping and if we haven't g...Just finished my food shopping and if we haven't got something we need - tough because I'm not going out THERE again!<BR/>Merry Christmas.<BR/>Carolyn x<BR/>http://willowhouse.typepad.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25664512.post-15076425240991886332007-12-21T19:28:00.000+00:002007-12-21T19:28:00.000+00:00mmmmmm sprouts :)mmmmmm sprouts :)Monkee Makerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02336571641425561485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25664512.post-67749527659825203282007-12-21T19:26:00.000+00:002007-12-21T19:26:00.000+00:00lynn...your mince pies look delicious. i bet your ...lynn...your mince pies look delicious. i bet your pastry's amazing! i have now made (+ eaten most of) about 5 dozen pies...still thinking one more batch before the big day? didn't make a cake either :(<BR/><BR/>wrapping my presents tonight by the woodstove. then a few more to make this weekend.<BR/><BR/>love sprouts. love roast parsnips. love all the veggies + stuffing. the turkey's ok but not the best bit for me. your roulade sounds like a much better idea than fruit salad! good luck with our food shop tomorrow! xxxKELLYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07043300079471369203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25664512.post-10291005380417718752007-12-21T13:10:00.000+00:002007-12-21T13:10:00.000+00:00Might I suggest the outdoor fridge/freezer?

We will have new potatoes as well as the roasted ones. The forecast is for rain on Christmas day. We will still manage to have a barbeque tea. I am stuffed full of end-of-term staff lunch. Plus there are enough chocolate gifts from children at our house to keep Weightwatchers in business for the next five years. We are off on our annual Christmas jaunt to the family farm. Miss Dog will be pleased to see her cousins. Harry would be greatly impressed by the doggy fun when they get together. <BR/>Must go to bed now. Big day travelling tomorrow!
