Which one Christmas food are you looking forward to?

[carolfoy]

Yay! bring back the seventies

Those After Eights in the individual packets are just the naughtiest things, I love them!

I've resisted these so far, might have to get a couple of bags when I'm out shopping on Thursday

Make sure you stick them in an orange covered in foil

I remember being allowed to drink a Babycham one Christmas and feeling so grown-up!

 

[carolfoy]

oooh I'll have a babycham!

Hmmm looking forward to the old pig in a blanket, we have them once a year but i eat enough to last me a year.

I can't think of anything we have that isn't around all year. I buy a turkey every few weeks and I often make a few Christmas Puddings in the summer. This year we're having a Chocolate Christmas Pudding from Hotel du Chocolat, I have also bought an obscenely expensive box of quality chocolates from them, so maybe they will become the "Christmas only" things.

 

[carolfoy]

ooh, Gill I love those big slabs Hotel de chocolat do, you know the ones with nuts and biscuit etc all rolled in them, in fact I don't think theres a product they do that I don't like!

There's a Hotel de Chocolat in Manchester and I can't walk past without going in 'just to look'......

 

[carolfoy]

especially if they're out with samples eh?

 

[gilld]

Have you tried their chocolate Christmas pudding?

 

[gilld]

I've also bought their chocolate crackers this year.

 

[carolfoy]

Well, I'll be around about 3pm ok? (oh, and can I have clotted cream on the pud too?)

Sadly Carol, there are only 8 crackers in a box, and there are 8 of us for lunch........ or you'd have been welcome....though Cornwall to Wiltshire is along drive!

 

[carolfoy]

..though Cornwall to Wiltshire is along drive!

but it doesn't count when there's chocolate at the end of it!

 

[gilld]

Hope you have a great time anyway....with LOTS of chocolate

Toblerone - I only ever seem to get it at Christmas. Looking forward to having it again.

I had a snowball last night it was in a fit of abigails-party-style nostalgia! yum, I'd forgotton how nice they are.
I agree with the shell on nuts though, and dates were always xmas-only fodder. My dad used to crack the nuts using just his bare hands - It was his party trick

Wow thats a film I've not seen in ages - Its so funny!

I agree, along with a snowball you have to make the cheese and pineapple hedgehog and serve a variety of vol-o-vants

Can't wait for my Quorn roast!!
