Speaking of eggs Adam!
Do you like egg soldiers?

They're OK but not all they're cracked up to be.

Happy Christmas Eve everyone.
Almost got everything done - just some pressies to wrap and deliver. Had a panic attack last night as had everything for lunch except turkey!! But after driving around a bit I managed to find a small breast joint. The biggest hurdle is yet to come!!! I have emptied all the wine out of the oven vacuumed and cleaned it and tested it - so far no explosion. So all systems are go!
Hope you are all organised and ready for the Big Day!!

And that was The Cold Dark Room's 30,000th post, Lyn!
WOW!!! That's a lot.
Happy Christmas Eve!
I need to do a rain dance here.
Do you have a gas oven, then ?
It's far better than electric in my opinion.
i'm sure your cooking will be fine.
Actually, i'm not, but wish to seem encouraging.

Your lunch is going to be amazing Lyn!!

Hi Adam! Thanks for the encouragement but I'm not too optimistic myself.
The only good thing is that my nephew doesn't have a very discerning palate so he won't be too bothered if I burn stuff!
30,000 posts wow! Do I get a prize like shops give to their millionth customer?

With my cooking the chances are high that I may not live that long!
Will let you know how I feel after lunch!!

Damn - just remembered I forgot sausage rolls for nibbles in the evening!
Shops are open till 6 though so should be OK.

One of the advantages here, is that the shops are open as usual Christmas Day, so if you've forgotten anything, it's fine.
This year, however, half the shops are shut today as it's the Prophet Mohammed's Birthday (PBUH). The Islamic year is calculated on the lunar calendar so the festivals move by about 11 days each year, this year the two events are only a day apart!!!!
Won't happen again for many decades.
It's not a big event here, though, they just eat more cakes than usual.

Good luck with all that, though i have the feeling you're a very organized person, so you'll be fine.
Wifey loves Miracle on 34th Street.
good movie.
