A toasted sandwich.

Have cooked all day for others. Can't face cooking for myself at 00.10.

Following on for our Christmas Lunch...

The BBQ didn't evenuate sadly because of bad weather....so, our daughter & her partner cooked a nice beef (from the farm) roast with roasted kumara (sweet potato) & roasted pumpkin & with boiled skins-on new-season potatoes (from my FIL's garden), minus some green beans, as, they forgot, whoops!...oh! also a homemade gravy & Yorkshire pudding that our future son-in-law made, too!

For dessert..my MIL made meringues which we had with whipped cream & strawberries & some homegrown raspberries from my FIL & when we had polished that yummy yummy food down...we had to make room for a slice of my daughters partner's plum tart/flan - the plums were picked a few days ago from all the plum trees on the farm here!

Plus, we had some nice sparkling white & red grape juice! smile

Mmmm! Maree, I like the sound of your delicious Xmas dinner that you shared with your lovely family last nite! thumbsup ...a question for you my dear - what are "Balmain bugs" please?!

I'm looking forward to reading all your Christmas lunch/dinner menus!

Cheers to you, Ashen, Maree & All! smile

Hi Kris. Balmain bugs: difficult to describe seafood creatures. Will Google it and try to send you a link later today. Family weren't here last night. They are coming this arvo for a belated Christmas and son's birthday tomorrow.

Last night I hosted some friends who were at a loose end for the day. We got together, sorted a budget, planned a menu and I cooked. I've done this for the last few years.

Have to make the birthday cake now. Will Google later and try to get that link to you.
