Christmas Day

It has been a lovely day, quiet and restful. We opened presents before Tina went off to take her services, I was very lucky, may put a couple of pictures on tomorrow. I just enjoyed looking at a couple of books and a wonderful calendar that Tina sent for this morning and just got the dining room ready for out dinner to be delivered! Amazing dinners they were too, they arrived in foil trays, we just had to plate them up, we all picked different meat!


My lamb shank was so bit a good part of it is wrapped up in the fridge now! I just took a picture of my dessert, which was very rich.
This afternoon I did go out for a walk, I decided to cut through the park but hadn’t realised just how muddy the path would be so it took quite a bit longer than I had thought.


I talked to the American family this afternoon, they are having a quieter Christmas than usual. Then we watched Tina open her birthday presents and cards and followed up with a game of Scrabble. I am relaxing back in my sitting room now.

  1. Glad you had a nice restful day. Your dinner looks really nice, and so much easier than slaving in the kitchen for hours. The dessert looks extremely sweet, but nice. You should make it a Christmas tradition from now on.
    A nice walk on Christmas Day help the dinner go down 😊 Haven’t ventured out myself for several days, and not much chance of it this year now.
    I know the American clan usually have a big family get together each year, so it must seem extra quiet for them. There’ll be a lot of large get together if the world ever sorts itself out, which I really do doubt at times.
    Enjoy a bit of feet up time now, ready for another holiday day tomorrow. Oh joy!

  2. The dinners were good value we think, not small portions either! It certainly was an easy way to eat on Christmas Day.
    It was nice to get out for a bit of fresh air and exercise after lunch.
