2 Christmas puddings. Chocolate sponge bomb thing. 1-2 lb gammon not even cooked yet. Red cabbage. Loads of cheese, terrine and all sorts of alcohol.

Cheese. So much cheese.

1 large fruit and nut Toblerone
2 large bags orange mini daim

Hardly any! All leftovers done. Cheese is all gone except oddly the boursin which I love. Lots of crackers left though. Better get some more cheese!

What's with all the cheese, I've eaten my body weight in cheese. I think it's self replenishing.

I don’t buy much extra so all we have left is cheese.
I always buy a selection of cheeses at Christmas for our 18 year old but this year he’s either been at work or out so hasn’t yet eaten any of it.

BornInAThunderstorm · 31/12/2018 00:26

Mince pies and cheese, plus a prawn ring that I forgot to get out of the freezer on Christmas eve.
We are planning a NYE buffet though so have bought some oriental oven junk and will finish it all off tomorrow night ready for the diet season on Tuesday Grin

Elephantina · 31/12/2018 00:28

We gave away all the chocolate - still have a few mince pies, half a Christmas pudding and a panettone.

rosydreams · 31/12/2018 00:29

lots of party food boxes and way to many biscuits .

Christmasfairy07 · 31/12/2018 00:32

A few chocs.
Quite a bit of cheese ( and I bought a wheel of Brie today)
Pig in Blanket flavour crisps
A ton of sliced beef in the freezer
Clotted cream

2019HereWeCome · 31/12/2018 00:32

None because we didn't buy a lot since we were only feeding the 4 of us.
We do have a load of party food in the fridge and freezer though, ready for tomorrow night and New Year's day.

5foot5 · 31/12/2018 00:34

Oh God, cheese! I quite like cheese but I think I will be sneaking out to dump the Camambert soon. You open the fridge and the whole house smells cheesy,

We have half a cake and a lot of mincemeat left. There is also five bags of turkey meat in the freezer to be used up in the next few weeks.

Loads of chocolate though and we need to start a bit of 5:2 very soon as waistbands are getting tight!

Kintan oh dear, i feel your pain. My Dad was very seriously ill a couple of months ago and in hospital. We prayed so much that he would make it till Christmas and it seemed a forlorn hope at the time. But he did and is slowly regaining his strength. I hope your relative recovers soon.
