Questions which don't merit their own thread.

Is this acceptable party fare? 6-9 year olds, 2-430pm: crisps; pop corn; chocolate fondue with bananas, apples, clementines; jelly; chocolate cake.

Are postcards acceptable as Christmas cards (they're cheaper to get printed than foldy cards)?

Is cheesecake just as good if it's made with lactose free cheese?

I'd have some veggies as well to pretend health.

Yes.

No to cheesecake. It's repulsive.

CoatedInSnow · 19/11/2018 21:55

As in cheesecake is repulsive or cheesecake with lactose free cheese is repulsive?

No. You need to add something a bit more substantial like mini sandwiches or slices of pizza.
Yes.
No idea.

Why am I still here?

Does anyone else just eat the icing and marzipan on a christmas cake?

CoatedInSnow · 19/11/2018 22:08

Nope. I just eat the icing. Don't like Marzipan or the cake!

OP posts:
SmellyHead · 19/11/2018 22:19

No I eat the cake and leave the marzipan and icing.

CoatedInSnow · 19/11/2018 22:27

That looks ridiculous written down. Maybe this year we ditch the cake and make extra biscuits instead!

What was the best thing before sliced bread?

nowifi · 19/11/2018 22:29

I love the marzipan and hate the cake!

MsNowtyBach · 19/11/2018 22:34

I think that maybe the wheel was the best thing before sliced bread?

Or maybe there's a chronological list, including pasteurised milk, electricity etc?

Is it time to update the saying?

Best thing since space travel?

Mamaogden · 19/11/2018 22:40

I make jam tarts 😋

Serfisafleur · 19/11/2018 22:44

I thought space travel was all a hoax

TheFreaksShallInheritTheEarth · 19/11/2018 22:45

Cheesecake: I made a vegan one (so without lactose!) for DD recently and it was blooming lovely.

Christmas cake: I eat the whole lot.

Where are my glasses?

Serfisafleur · 19/11/2018 22:46

Is it better for the environment to wrap Christmas presents in tin foil?

darkriver198868 · 19/11/2018 22:47

@thefreak have you checked on top of your head?

SausageSimon · 19/11/2018 22:47

Your glasses are on the side in your bathroom, you're welcome

JustLurkingAway · 19/11/2018 22:48

Pineapple on pizza?

TheFreaksShallInheritTheEarth · 19/11/2018 22:53

Not on my head, no, but they were indeed in the bathroom! Thanks.
Wow, I should ask Mumnset to sort out all my trivial problems!

No, pineapple on pizza is an aberration.

suckmasterburstingfoam · 19/11/2018 22:54

My mum makes a cheesecake with tofu, I think, and it's great.

Is tofu lactose-free?

AhCheeses · 19/11/2018 23:03

Why do I never go to bed early enough for a decent sleep?

SausageSimon · 19/11/2018 23:03

@TheFreaksShallInheritTheEarth that's amazing!! Grin can't believe I guessed that. It was because I have a habit of losing my phone and it tends to be on the side in the bathroom or an odd shelf in the pantry!

MissConductUS · 19/11/2018 23:08

Can God make a weight so great that She Herself cannot lift it?

Pineapple and ham on pizza is a gourmet staple in Hawaii. No one is made to eat it.

Mamaogden · 19/11/2018 23:12

Sre you too busy to go to bed pr do you make excuses. Either can be overcome. Set yourself an alarm to go to bed

AhCheeses · 19/11/2018 23:28

If I'm honest, I'm just enjoying the peace and quiet whilst everyone else is asleep... My house is lovely when they're all quiet 😁
I think I need a reward chart. That might help me go to bed on time...? 😏

Maelstrop · 19/11/2018 23:32

Is the M&S Christmas pudding really that amazing? Wondering if it's worth a diversion en route home tomorrow.
