What do you have for breakfast on Christmas day?

[ja9]

I often do scrambled eggs with salmon on croissants. This year i'm think of finger food - so we can eat whilst we open presents... What do you do?

Um, chocolate normally

use a sharp knife to slice off the peel and pith. Then cut into each segment, leaving the tough skin behind and only succulent orange pieces in teh salad.

I don't think I can explain it very well.

Thats the way I normally eat an orange, what's the other way?

If I eat an orange, I peel it with my hands and pull the segments apart.

bacon sandwiches

Chocolate, tea and fags.

The kids only get the chocolate part.

Woman after my own heart earwicga.:)

Neve thought about having a special breakfast on Christmas day, just have whatever I feel like.

Chocolate fondue with marshmallows, fruit, croissants.

Champagne (cava ) to drink.

Yum!!

Another one with earwicga but coffee instead.

DC chocolate, clementines and juice

me - coffee, paracetamol, coffee & more paracetamol
ds - oranges (chocolate variety) and milk (chocolate variety)

I'm always more excited than dc's (14 & 5) and never sleep on christmas eve. Usually spend it re-wrapping presents (after theyhave been discovered) and spring cleaning house, in between drinking tonnes a bit of vodka and singing to chrismas songs.

(flippin heck WW, how long does it take for your kettle to boil?!)

we'll have pancakes with bacon and maple syrup I think, unless dh has any opinions (that'll be a first!)

baileys coffee, hot choc for dd

i start drinking early on xmas day

Hello MRB baileys in my coffee on xmas morning too and a fag

croissants left on the table buffet style with butter and spreads so everyone can wander over and help themselves.

And usually copious amounts of chocolate too

Coffee and paracetamol

Bowl of cereal and mug of tea as soon as up with DS (2.7) at 6.30-7ish

Then about 9ish when everyone is up and dressed we do scrambled eggs, jamon iberico (luscious Spanish ham but too expensive to have more than once a year!) and toast made from posh bread. And more tea, this time in proper cups and saucers. Posh OJ and coffee for anyone who wants it.

Usually a cheeky bottle glass of fizz while present opening and/or at breakfast.

DCs are young enough (2.7 and 3mo) to not have their own ideas about Christmas so we can make the centre of the morning be leisurely family breakfast and fit present opening around that. I think from next year DS will be more excited about Christmas so it might end up that breakfast ends up fitting in around presents.

We dont usually have breakfast as lunch is not that far away (kids will have chocolate and prob cereal) but i may invest in some nutella as we only buy that in the holidays and some coco pops or similar as they also get crappy cereal in the hols too!

I also want some pain au chocolate but the danger is i will eat them all myself as DP wont eat them and the kids can be a wee bit fussy.

To all that have a lavish breakfast/brunch do you not have christmas dinner till later?

chocolate, fags, bucks fizz and whatever else I fancy

this year I fancy smoked salmoon and cream cheese bagels

well I bought bacon and sausages incase we wanted that, but also have ingredients for american pancakes but am now thinking maybe making the nigella xmas morning muffins again as I have some dried cranberry mix left over...

However we may also be having rocky road as I've made so much we'll probablt be eating it well into next year!

Slobbadan we have breakfast around 9 and Christmas dinner around 3. Everyone is starving. It is massive - I know all Christmas dinners are huge but all our relatives and friends are in shock at how much we eat for Christmas lunch Then we have supper at 8ish - leftover turkey, cold cuts of ham, leftover stuffing, fresh bread, cheese and crackers, and usually some chips as well just because they're yummy

Mince pies and squirty cream
