Well, I normally mostly shop in SuperValu, but occasionally go to Dunnes instead. I often get nice bits from M&S. And I have a few local delis I go to frequently enough anyway. My choc come from Leonidas if I have not been travelling (if travelling, I often go to Neuhaus or other Belgian choclatiers other than Leonidas - or just get a massive Leonidas for half the price of here at home). And Lidl for various things too (including their stolen for years now). I normally get quite a few bits from the farmers market near my DPs a couple of weeks beforehand also. And I go to a good cheese store near my office (as well as a few specific cheeses I get on my travels).
This year, it's odd.
Haven't been to the farmer's market since February due to Covid. But I have managed to find online routes to 2 of the producers so will have my smoked salmon and good hot chocolate mix.
There is no travel so no goodies from Brussels.
The Leonidas near my house has closed so if I go into the office I could get to one in town, but I may not be in town before Christmas. So that may also limit my cheese and cured meats buying from the cheese store.
We had been using a local fishmongers on occasion but have been going there a lot more frequently, and he does shellfish for Christmas. So that will be a positive.
I have my stollen from Lidl already.
Local M&S is still open so even if I don't get to town, I can get some nice bits.
I will probably stick to SuperValu this year, as the big Dunnes was badly hit with Covid and is very very busy at this time of year, whereas SV manages numbers instore better.
And as it will be just our own household this year, as long as we have some treats, some alcohol, and enough ordinary food, we can make some treats ourselves and be quite happy with nice meals even if they are not our normal festive fare. I haven't ordered a turkey (some years we do, others we just pick one up when we see it) so will either find one in Christmas week or get something else that is nice and that we will enjoy. In fact, this year, having not slowed down at all and not even done my usual levels of baking, I am looking forward to some proper time in the kitchen getting stuck in (I got some good cooking chocolate a month ago in readiness, and my general baking supplies are normally pretty decent, so hopefully....)
