Christmas treats - JJB - 30-12-2020
What eating treats do you or your OH buy only at Christmas? I buy Cheese Footballs, puff pastry straws, Turkish delight and fudge for P. It's maltesers, Lindor, cambazola cheese and butter for me. Mind you, we are eating these things up after Christmas when in reality we should be cutting back and getting back to our pre-Christmas weight.

A hand cured gammon joint, not the chemically smoked stuff you get in supermarkets.

Of course Danny, I'm sure most of us either buy or make the mince pies, sausage rolls, Christmas cake and Christmas pudding. I bought a discounted pud today for eating in the spring

mince pies (4 dozen made this Christmas) a team effort: she makes the pastry and I do the rest.
Christmas pudding, though we tend to eat it at Easter or lter. One from last year is still in the cupboard.

I always made my christmas puddings until I bought a Heston blummingwotsit hidden orange one. OMG! Delicious. So after Christmas I buy a couple for the following year - they are usually pennies after and they have long dates on.
My brother didn't come this year so I'm going to save it for the summer? ? Let's hope it's fine
I like cheese....but won't buy it normally.
Cheese olives and fizz

Oh makes a Christmas cake and always seems to forget to buy a bottle of brandy for it and uses mine, I think it would last us several months but she always insists in giving son and daughter a share, then when they are down at our house she gives them a piece of ours, somehow I think I lose out in that
we also buy a box of mixed cheeses which we enjoy after Christmas and this year we have to eat it all by our selves which is most unusual as when either one of them come in their first stop is to have a look in the fridge, I think they forget that it was their choice to get married and move out the house
