Christmas is nearly here!

I haven't blogged in a while, but today, I have nothing better to do than to think about Christmas! I have eventually written and now posted all my Christmas cards! Was conned in the post office when the lady serving me claimed she has no second class stamps left and I had no choice but to buy first class stamps. I did say 13 and she gave me 30! Oh well, the 20 odd stamps will last me for a while!

I have ordered a 3 bird roast for Christmas. It is a pleasant inside a chicken inside a duck! Have nevered tasted pleasant before, so this 3 bird combination should be interesting. Gravy does not seem appropriate for this kind of bird roast, so I googled for some simple sauce recipes. Eventuall, I came cross an easy red wine sauce! Will try it out.
