Ok..foody confession. I'm never going to cook a bloody goose again.

[moondog]

The grease!!!!
The smoke!!!!

House reeked,kids reeked,even the bloody bandage on my leg still gives of wafts of it!

And it wasn't that great either......

Right,Iceland battery farmed and brutally reared turky crown next year chez Moondog!

Issymum, your Christmas lunch sounds exactly like the one at our house! And I think the boeuf bourguignon is an absolutley brilliant idea

he he he....We're not either. Did it a couple of years ago and I swore never again.

And forgot to say, poor you Moondog. Get well soon

Yes, sorry about dodgy leg moondog - hope you get well soon. It can't have been easy cooking at all bandaged up like that.

Lol at the bandage collecting cooking smells though!

we ate at 12.30. Perfect! with just a Ribena kir royale as a starter.

Sorry to hear your goose wasn't too good. My parents' was lovely! Really delicious, I was impressed. Hope we get invited next year .
