DH also insists on Yorkshire puddings, although my Northern soul revolts against the notion. If my parents are about, there'll be sprouts for them and no-one else.

youvegottenminuteslynn · 24/10/2021 22:24

I'm a non Christmassy person and last year had THE best Christmas ever because I had a delicious spaghetti bolognese using my favourite recipe. I know, I know - sacrilege on here but after years of battling PTSD for various reasons during Christmas time my counsellor suggested a me day and I bloody loved it! Favourite films and shows, favourite music, favourite meal, longest bath ever and no triggers. GLORIOUS it was!
