A Christmas Thread.

[NoMercy]

Well, it's only just around the corner, innit...

What goodies - drinks and eats - do you like to have in your house over the festive period.

It goes without saying that I like plenty of wine and bubbles, but I always have a nice liqueur such as Tia Maria in over the xmas holidays. I love to stock up on nice cheeses, Quality Street and big squidgey dates.

How about you?

[ummmm]

Better than yesterday...still sad though.

I always overbuy!

I buy too much food so that it gets thrown away.
I buy too much 'silly' drinks like advocaat, cherry brandy that no one drinks.
I buy too many packs of xmas cards and my card list is getting smaller every year.

Like China, nothing different from any other time, except perhaps a few more beers and some extra wine.

For some strange reason I always have mince pies and port......if I like them so much why do I never have them the rest of the year?

[4getmenot]

dont know why I but more food at xmas because I'm always at families house anyway. Always good to have a big tin of chocs for visitors though and a few tubes of pringles.
