Desert Island Christmas; what are your absolute musts?

[FelicityLemon]

You have landed on a desert island on Christmas Eve (by magic/ freak weather incident or sci-fi explanation take your pick!) , rescuers are coming but not before Boxing Day at least. You will be air dropped a basic food supply and you can have 3 other small items to make things festive:
a savoury food
a sweet food
a drink
What do you pick?

Mine are; cheese; red wine and one of the tins of French stuffed prunes that I've only ever seen at Lakeland but must be available elesewhere.

This is surprisingly tricky! I'd go with

• pigs in blankets
• red cabbage in apples (can that be the sweet?)
• champagne !!

You can have the red cabbage but don't you want a pudding? Personally I struggled with the lack of roast potatoes but Christmas without cheese just can't happen. :-)

No pudding required! I'm a savoury person, very meh about desserts.

a savoury food - cheese and crackers
a sweet food- cheesecake
a drink - prosecco (....but a rocket fuel coffee too, for the 4 am wake up....please)

This is a tricky one indeed!
My homemade sausage rolls
Christmas Pudding
Gin

Sorry Hazey, it's a forced choice do you wake up early or indulge in the Christmas cheer?

It was easier to choose than I expected...
Pigs in blankets
Chocolate log
Tea

Sorted

Same as @hazeyjane for savoury, cheese and biscuits - lindor chocolates for sweet - a very good red wine for drink

Stilton, Port and Fruitcake.

Christmas wrapped up...

This is just too hard OP. But, if I had to choose, I would go with:
Savoury: Roast ham as made by my DM with cloves, spices etc
Sweet: stollen
Drink: green ginger wine

Actual desert island disc: Lonely This Christmas by Mud

Good game!

It would have to be stuffing
mince pies
champagne

Ah fuck it, I'll just start drinking prosecco at 4am.....
....maybe my cheesecake could be an espresso one.

I think this would be heaven

I would ask for some nice thick juicy glazed ham then I would feast on fresh crab and lobster that I have retrieved from the ocean,
I would get a bottle of mango and apple juice (for the sweet) and a bottle of rum

Yes Grey I think I'd come back from this quite refreshed!
Although maybe not if i had to listed to Lonely This Christmas on repeat!

Pigs in blankets
Mulled wine
Huge, huge box of chocolates.

Interesting question! Drink I'd go for a magnum of prosecco.... it has to last until boxing day y'know!

Then for savoury... A big vat of my dads broccoli cheese, freshly grilled

And for sweet... Dads xmas cake - minus the icing and marzipan, bleary, but it is the MOST delicious fruit cake

Pigs in blankets
Christmas cake
Baileys as it is Christmas

Ooh great thread.

I'd have cheese, crackers & chutney (counts as one, right?)

Aldi mini stollen (or After eights)

Cherryade (reminds me of Christmas as a kid)

My song would be 'A spaceman came travelling' by Chris de Burgh 🎅

Stilton
Christmas pudding
Moët

Perfect

Good post op!

Prawn cocktail
Fruit cocktail trifle
Prosecco

Freaking love prawn cocktail, Christmas was the only time I got it growing up.

my MILs Lemon and Sausagemeat stuffing.
Cheese Board
Good bottle of Port

Cheese & crackers
Cabury's selection box
Beer

Just about perfect!

Baileys
mince pies
Cheese board

Savoury- Cheese selection, must include Mont d'or/lancashire bomb/vignotte/Epoisses
Sweet- M&S Connoisseur stollen slices
Drink- Laurent Perrier Rose

See I'm not high maintenance at all!

The broccoli cheese sounds good TheGirl

Crackers is pushing it Kittens and chutney is over the line
