It’s definitely not too early. If you want to order meat, you’ll need to get a wiggle on.
Breakfast: I’m quite partial to a bowl of coco pops while DH will probably go without but pick at turkey and home made sausage rolls as he’s cooking.
Lunch: Turkey, roast potatoes, chipolata sausages from the butchers, wrapped in streaky bacon, Yorkshire puddings, home made sage & onion stuffing, cabbage and sprouts boiled for hours, eighties mum style (nobody eats either apart from me and DN, and we like them like that), sweetcorn, peas and carrots. None of us like parsnips or swede so we don’t bother. Vegans will be having vegan equivalents but with Paxo stuffing without added butter. We’ll have M&S Black Forest iced gateau and they’re having the M&S vegan chocolate torte with chocolate ice cream.
Tea isn’t usually a thing as DH has no sense of portion control and cooks extra but there’s always plenty to choose from.
I prefer Boxing Day, cold meats, pigs in blankets, DH’s stuffing and bubble and squeak. I prefer it to Christmas dinner. I did treat myself to a proper trifle bowl recently so I’m thinking about a clementine trifle but haven’t seen a recipe I love yet.
