For some reasons, I thought X’mas was further away. I hadn’t realised it’s next Monday. Not until my man talked about X’mas dinner.
While we don’t celebrate X’mas in the religious sense, we have always tried to prepare something X’masy meal wise each year. Usually, it’s homecooked stuff.
So the man sat down and listed the items to buy and prepare, very intently. From appetizer, soup, main dish, side dish to dessert. Since he’s going to do the bulk of the cooking, I just concurred with his inputs. The only idea I contributed was to have baked chicken thighs so I’ll most probably only have to marinate that. Heh.
But I’m happy. Cos it’s starting to feel a lot more like X’mas now.
I am so impressed with your man! He actually is the one planning the Xmas meal… Coolness!
I love Christmas!!
JM: Erm, that’s really cos he’s the better cook between us.

Men and food just always seem to go together, don’t they? I try to forget about food/calories, but the hubby is always there to steer my attention back to eating!!
I’m sure that your meal will be great. Merry Christmas!!
ally: Haha! You’re so right!

No Turkey roasting? But then your family size is the same as mine (for now that is). I was comtemplating roasting a turkey.. they’ll be too much leftover though.
Show us the christmas dinner yeah?
ZM: Sure will. But no turkey for us. We don’t like turkey so much.
