This year OH and I are going down south to our other house, DYD has already moved in to it and she says SHE is doing Christmas lunch! Our DYS will also be there - this will be the first Christmas for about 4 years that we will be together  - usually work made it impossible.

 

She was talking to OH about getting a turducken but I hope he talked her out of it - there will only be 4 of us and she will end up eating it for the next 3 weeks! I have been ordered  asked to make the traditional family pav for our dessert. The problem there is that the last couple of years I have changed to making mini pavs, with a mixed berry sauce added at  serving.... now I dont know if I should make them (they are absolutley delicious and have been a big hit at every Christmas meal I've taken them too) or whether to make the one DYD wants 

*sigh*

 

I hope you can save that fuschia - they are one of my fave plants but I can never seem to get them to survive more than a little while. It broke my heart to see hedges of them growing wild when we visited Ireland!
