CHRISTMAS IN THE COLD
Well it has taken a while to get this update together. Christmas wasn't quite the same without Steve or our families being around but Vanessa and I tried to make it as memorable as possible.
Before...
We were surprised and of course pleased to discover that Santa thinks ahead and uses Australia Post. We entered the spirit of the season and battled the crowds on Oxford Street, Brent Cross shopping centre and the local Tesco's to find all the traditional food and decorations. We don't really have room for a full size tree so we made do with a small one.
After...
As far as food goes, we gave the traditional turkey a go. The supermarkets over here cater to those who have limited cooking experience very well. We bought a turkey portion that came prestuffed and completely ready to roast. In fact all we had to do was remove the plastic covering. We did choose gravy over the cranberry sauce though. We ditched to plum pudding in favour of a more modern Banoffe Pie. If you haven't tried one then I recommend it, but only for a treat.
As traditional as it gets
That is all from Vanessa and myself. Although late, we hope that everyone had a great day with their own families and friends.
