I do think it is a season for remembering past Christmas's--both funny, endearing and those we'd like to forget. But all those happenings made us part of who we are today and why we are who we are. Probably Steve's cooking was to survive!! This is a time of year I have some trouble with depression but no snow here yet trying to keep Crimbo memories in there place, in the past. Happy holidays to you Caz!!

Yes, it is a time for remembering the good times. Many of the ornaments on my tree trigger memories of loved ones and make the decorating and sharing with the grandkids all the more special. Have a great Christmas!

Glad you had a good night out. This time of year is when you tend to reflect on the past,I lost my dad nearly 27years ago he had a heart attack at 56. So I always remember him as that age. He loved christmas and new year and never drank at any other time. We had lots of family over goodness knows how mum coped with at least 20 my dad was shy but a lovely singer so I remember him fondly at this time of year stuffed with christmas dinner and a little drink and he would sing and sing. He also had a twinkle in his eye for mum and she responded like a teenager how embarrassed my sisters and I were.

My Dad used to smoke his annual cigar on Christmas Day. He loathed smoking, and would do this every year to confirm his loathing, so that he could moan about smoking legitimately, as he put it. His philosophy was that you can't complain about something being a filthy habit until you've tried it. LOL Then one year (I was about ten), I happened to remark that he looked rather like a gorilla sucking on a stick...... Funny thing, he never had another cigar after that. Hugs, Lex xxx

I am trying hard to fit more time in for and with dad - hard as I don't get home till supper time. But I do know what you mean. Be year and half now since mum has gone and there are times I so want to tell her something or see her but I still talk to her and know she hears me. HUGS Report Inappropriate Comment |

Caz- It's these moments we will cherish for ever. I can still think back of how my Mom and Dad always made the holidays so special for our family. Now it's my turn to carry on traditional for my family and friends. Sounds like you had a fun time last night!

You should try this!
Sure to bring smiles from your guests!
Here is a new way to prepare your Christmas Turkey.
1. Cut out aluminium foil in desired shapes.
2. Arrange the turkey in the roasting pan, position the foil carefully. (see attached
picture for details)
3. Roast according to your own recipe and serve.
4. Watch your guests' faces...
May your stuffing be tasty
May your turkey be plump,
May your potatoes and gravy
Have never a lump.
May your puddings be delicious
And your pies take the prize,
And may your Christmas dinner
Stay off your thighs!
Happy Christmas Everyone!

Too funny! Alas, lasagna is our traditional Christmas dinner. No time in the kitchen; lots of time to celebrate!
