No more work for me. But, I had a heck of a lot to get done though. Firstly, I had to run up to G Pickett at Sele Farm and pick up our free range turkey and a piece of fillet of beef. Once home, I threw the turkey into the oven after dressing it using one of Delia's recipes again. Although the stuffing I placed up its backside was a recipe I have used for a few years now. In making that, I also made 16 stuffing balls, too.
With that on the go, I made a gravy that we'd seen on a Jamie Oliver show the night before and then prepared the mushroom-liver pate for the Beef Wellington that I also put together. We had that later (another tradition). I also wrapped some Cumberland chipolata sausages with some bacon, and made some pastry which I used on some home-made mince pies. I also iced our home-made Christmas cake.
Dawn, on the other hand, tackled the photo albums again. That in itself is a mammoth undertaking. However, we did relax, too. We watched It's a Wonderful Life on DVD. You got it, another tradition.
