Well another year seems to have passed and my posts on this a few and getting scarcer I think. Once again Im relaxing for a couple of weeks at my parents house to celebrate the festivities. Yesterday the evening was spent at my sisters where she prepare dinner for 11 people and boy was I full after it all, I even believe that there was plenty of dad's deboned turkey left so guess that Turkey will continue to be on the menu for a few days. She definitely did herself proud, the meal was as follows:
Starter:
Smoked Mackerel Pate (made by Graeme)
Carrot and Coriander Soup (made by my mum)
Main:
Roast Deboned Turkey stuffed with Carrot, Leak, bacon and chicken
Roast Parsnips and Carrots
Roast and Mash Tatties
Bacon wrapped sausages
2x Stuffings
Desert:
Dumpling (made by Grahams mum)
Cheesecake
followed by Coffee and the offer of more food declined by all.
After dinner we all opened presents (continued from our morning opening before we got there) in all I received the following:
Money (my usual supply)
2008 calendar
socks
Torch
Vouchers
3 books
backpack
T-shirts
All in all so far its been a good week, my girlfriend is joining me in Scotland for New Year and arrives on Saturday to meet my family.
