Soon be time to start watching all the old Christmas Cooking programmes on TV

The Food Channel is a good one

Delia - though for some reason I manage to catch the one where she cooks the ham. Interesting but not uppermost on my cooking list as I'm a vegetarian
Nigellas Christmas - and her brined turkey
Hestons Perfect Christmas (aaaah) where he makes the reindeer milk ice-cream
Even Fanny Craddock with her huge piping bag of sausage meat that she whacks under the turkey skin.

Not so keen on Hairy Bikers or Jamie Oliver
And Anthony Worrell Thompson just makes me stabby

I've just spent all night watching Jamie Oliver and Kirstie Allsopp and couldn't be happier! I like the different ideas that JO has for breakfasts and fun things to make with the kids. Im feeling inspired and will have a go at a Yule Log and Mulled Cider tomorrow.

I've watched the Two Fat Ladies, Delia Smith and Nigel Slater so far.

Love the Two Fat Ladies, but I don't think I could actually bring myself to eat the things they cook.

Delia's stuff has dated terribly - the wine tasting bits are hilarious.

I am avoiding like the plague, anything with Jamie Oliver.

I want to be Clarissa Dickson-Wright/Jennifer Paterson when I grow up

I LOVE Delia at Christmas. I always manage to get the one with the little sticky toffee puddings and chocolate truffles.

I had a Heston-Fest last week and watched his Christmas Dinner one again.
