I would have bucks fizz followed by Pina coladas but we have to drive and visit.

So, we are having m&s blini's, soft whipped cheese, smoked salmon, caviar and prawns.

What's on your menu?

Eggs Benedict, clementine juice, lattes. DD will have chocolate.

easyandy101 · 24/12/2018 16:01

Scrambled eggs and smoked salmon

Nothing so I can do full justice to Christmas lunch

ChessieFL · 24/12/2018 16:03

Bucks Fizz and bacon sandwiches!

TheSheepofWallSt · 24/12/2018 16:05

Cinnamon rolls, crumpets and jam while unwrapping presents with DS (it’ll be before dawn... sugar needed!)

We’ll have smoked salmon, creek fraiche and blinis and champagne at brunch time.

Toast. Full Christmas dinner followed by tea at the in-laws means a big breakfast is out of the question.

golondrina · 24/12/2018 16:05

Usually a, normal breakfast, just toast and so on. This year I've bought a big thing of chocolate pastries from Costco so I don't even have to be arsed making toast. :)

CollapsedGingerbreadHouse · 24/12/2018 16:08

Croissants and gluten free panettone, coz gf croissants are rank, and tea made in a pot.

IHopeYouStepOnALegoPiece · 24/12/2018 16:08

Smoked salmon, scrambled eggs and croissants with champagne, tea, coffee or orange juice.

Have had that every Xmas morning for about 25y!

I wrap the turkey in bacon while it’s cooking, put it in the oven at 7am then when the turkey is done I take the bacon off and we have bacon rolls for breakfast 😋 I can’t wait!

Sitranced · 24/12/2018 16:11

Usually salmon and eggs but we had that this morning so it could be fruit toast and jam or bacon sandwiches depending on how we feel by morning.

CMOTDibbler · 24/12/2018 16:12

Trifle

Fatasfook · 24/12/2018 16:12

French toast with smoked bacon and maple syrup. Buck’s Fizz. Coffee

bananamonkey · 24/12/2018 16:13

Eggs Royale and Buck’s Fizz (M&S clementine and cranberry)

MrsStrowman · 24/12/2018 16:14

Usually poached or scrambled eggs with smoked salmon, but gestational diabetes has put me off eggs for breakfast for a while... Also no champagne/mimosas this year, I'm driving and breast feeding, so American style pancakes with bacon and a pot of tea

papayya · 24/12/2018 16:14

Buck's Fizz and smoked salmon cream cheese bagels

Eliza9917 · 24/12/2018 16:15

@thesheepofwallstreet brunch?!?! How many meals do you fit in to Christmas day?

My family aways had pork pie, thick ham, boiled eggs. Don't know why! Maybe a tradition from Up North. (We hail from Yorkshire.)

Hoopaloop · 24/12/2018 16:16

Bottle of Malbec and boiled eggs.

TheSheepofWallSt · 24/12/2018 16:17

@eliza9917

Grin we have Christmas dinner around 5-6 and just a roast and pudding- no starter.

But I aim for 4 meals - first breakfast, brunch, dinner and late supper of dinner leftovers Grin

whyayepetal · 24/12/2018 16:17

AAAGH - I knew I'd forgotten something when I went shopping. 'Twas the festive breakfast croissants. Ah well, toast for us this year then... Xmas Smile

Doggydoggydoggy · 24/12/2018 16:18

Bagels, Brie, bacon, cranberry sauce
😋
