After all the rubbish that we've had thrown at us this horribly stressful year, we're having a simple Polish Christmas Eve with my Mum (fish based) and our Christmas Day will include a gammon joint, our own brussels, mild mustard mash (so the boys can have some) and maybe some of my winter spinach and some of my glut of beetroots (maybe roasted).

No idea what for starters or desert yet

We will be having prawns for starter (I LOVE prawns but never have them!).

Then turkey, my nans home made stuffing, sausages wrapped in bacon, roast potatoes, boiled potatoes, sprouts, carrots, roast parsnip and another veg that is still undecided!

Pudding.... still thinking about that!

Yola, what's mild mustard mash, is that mashed potatoes? Sounds like an interesting variation on the usual recipe? I normally just do them with butter and fresh ground pepper; had them with garlic at a friends and wasn't much impressed.

Hmm I was considering the starter for Christmas day the other day and still considering, however the main will be;
Roast Turkey, stuffing, mashed and roast potatoes, sprouts, carrots, cauliflower (because I love it) cheese sauce (again because I love it) maybe parsnips, and pigs in bacon.
