That's it, I'm done cooking for you lot for the year - it's time for me to take a break and put my feet up while mainlining Baileys Biscotti and mince pies. Real work has also finished so I am going to spend the next week sleeping, reading, watching the tellybox and possible eating and drinking a few choice morsels. I shall not be getting up at stupid o'clock and spending both hours in the car and the GDP of a small African nation on diesel. Sadly, the Hubs is working for almost all of the holidays but he is off on Christmas Day for which I am thankful and because I am a nice wife, I am cooking his favourite dinner on Christmas Eve...
Chicken and Pea Risotto. He's a man of simple yet refined tastes!
So, in case you missed any of the recipes, here's a roundup of this and last year's festive food
