Too much fuss about the whole caboodle if you ask me. I'm chillin'. Translation: not thinking about it much at all, much less doing anything. Not happy, not sad, just fairly indifferent except for astonishment at all the carry on and hoo-ha.

Anyone else?

I just do a normal Christmas dinner, with a good selection of veg, two sauces, (and, if I am organised enough, yorkshire puddings) and a separate gravy for vegetarians. It works out OK.

You know, Eleothan that is exactly what DD and I like best, as a vegetarian. I love roast potatoes, and Yorkshire pudding, and stuffing without suet is dead easy too. All I need to know is that animal fat wasn't used for the spuds etc.

It is DO much better than being given a special dish with which you don't get all the trimmings. Although a special dish with all the trimmings is even better! Spinach roulade is good.

Feeling a bit hungry...and sorry for the digression.
