i can't workout why people make this huge fuss over xmas anymore. when I was...

kid we did more and we had more people over so usually we'd have a number of extra guests for christmas dinner so we would have to cook more meats and foods but now we dont at all. this year we just had a salad we seen nigella make up with sprouts and ginger and shallots and chinese cabbage and salmon steaks and prawns and brie cheese and dessert we had these cute little mini puddings with gold dust over them and orange slices with dark chocolate we usually do turkey xmas evening or boxing day and pork after for new year and mum only buys small cuts of ham as I don't like it as much any more. and my mother made a lovely salad new year with a plum sauce that was really nice. and I didn't bother with birthday cake at all but I had a mini chocolate mince fruit pie made with orange and fig and custard and I had a ginger/pear ale non-alcoholic drink on xmas day. we also made some mini pudding cakes with marzapan. I bought a cheese cake and didn't even eat it, cuz I only allowed myself a few treats and diet being monitored, today I had a avocado on toast that was nice.
