Just for @morning glory here is my brunch muffin breakfast, most yummy it was too, served with a mug of builders to get me going.
What did you cook/eat today (December 2016)?

Well, you see, lovely as it looks, if I ate that I would not be able eat anything until evening. I'm on a permanent 1000 kcals per day and that would probably count for 400 of them.
Funnily enough my daughter suddenly said 'can I have a toasted muffin and poached egg for breakfast'. So as we had some muffins and some of those glorious golden yolked Black Farmer Eggs, that is what I made!

Lunch was smoked duck breast with caesar salad, accompanied by a young Hunter Valley white.
The beef is out of the fridge to dry and relax, do you think it's big enough for the two of us?

No I got it from The Cheshire Smokehouse just south of Manchester. I hope you are sitting down because that one breast cost more than your Turkey
That's why we only have one, once a year.
Talking of which, here is the £8.99 turkey! The injections seemed to work. I used melted butter and lemon zest and the flesh was quite moist.No I got it from The Cheshire Smokehouse just south of Manchester. I hope you are sitting down because that one breast cost more than your Turkey

So to the main event. The beef carved with a spoon and it was so tasty I didn't want to swallow it. A cracking Lebanese red to go with it too.
To follow, an orange marmalade pinweel and vanilla liquer cream, accompanied by more sherry, very nice.

I really don't know why you aren't posting recipes here @The Velvet Curtain. You plate up all this great stuff!
The usual stuff: Brussels, carrots (with tarragon), roast potatoes and parsnips, bread sauce, pigs in blankets, pork &chestnut stuffing, sage and onion stuffing.Very nice, I trust you has all the fixings
Also a vegetarian pie for my daughter: chestnuts, sweet potato, mushrooms, stilton, brandy. Yawn...
I can't wait to get back to non Xmas foods.

Well, me too except for the turkey leftovers. Thankfully not too much as the turkey was a small one.
