I've still got a bit of a rumpty tummy so not really in the mood for a pig out this year (the rest of my family have also been quite good). I've had:

Turkey dinner
Not Xmas pudding but a leftover from yesterday
A sandwhich with some pickled onions and a mince pie
A bag of chocolate buttons from my selection box

Not really a lot!

Snozzwangler · 26-12-2005, 00:19

Lots of brussels ... awaiting the fall out

Hubby pickled his own onions this year and added quite a few homegrown chillis to the mix 2 months ago

Too bad you couldn't dip them in your fountain (and I mean the chocolate one before you ask)!

I actually went to a party last week where there was one so Im no longer a choccy fountain virgin

Eater Sundae · 26-12-2005, 00:26

Bacon'negg sandwich for brekky

Turkey etc for lunch, followed by pudding & brandy custard.

At about 8 pm. Humous (or however you spell it) & pitta bread plus several glasses of cheap Tesco red wine. Then a bit of christmas cake.

Hmmm. A bit short on yhe 5 portions of fruit and veg.

Not stuffed, though.

You got a thing about chocolate fountains haven't you

I was able to get a good look at (and smell of) what my sister had to eat and drink this evening, owing to the fact that she threw up in my car.

However, today I had:

Smoked salmon and cream cheese on toast
A gellatine Santa lolly
Prawn cocktail
Turkey, with trimmings and all that
Sherry trifle
Christmas cake
Chocolate gateau
Various assorted chocolates

Jimmy Connors · 26-12-2005, 00:43

Lamb, runner beans, carrotts, sprouts, parsnips, potatoes and gravy.

Followed by a M&S pudding and mince pies and cream.

That was all over with by 4pm. I'm about to raid the fridge now as I'm starving.

Mark. · 26-12-2005, 00:50

I had:

A slice of crusty bread and jam for breakfast
2 Christmas tree-shaped biscuits, 2 chocolate digestives and a bag of roast chicken flavour crisps for a "snack"
The usual, roast turkey, sausages, bacon, roast and boiled tatties, carrots & gravy
A generious helping of trifle
A reasonable slice of Christmas cake

It may seem a lot, but I honestly can eat loads without puting on any weight. If anything, I'm losing it and can't for the life of me figure out why.

How much did I eat?? Too bloody much!!

Egg Mayonaise, turkey, ham, lamb, sausages, spuds, 3 brussell sprouts (my yearly allowance!), a couple of glasses of wine and a slab of chocolate gateau and cream!

Other than that, not a lot really ....

tellyadict · 26-12-2005, 01:56

Breakfast

A sausage and bacon bap.

Dinner

Prawn Cocktail

Full Christmas dinner
Roast Turkey, roast spuds, roast parsnips. carrots, peas, chestnut sprouts, chestnut stuffing, bread sauce, gravy, Cranbury sauce. Cocktail sausages wrapped in bacon.

Black forest gateaux.

And very good it was too.

Supper

I tend to eat less each year, hence no full breakfast and no cold supper this year. We did yesterday though have the Marks and Spencer seafood platter. Expensive but so good.

As usual Boxing day will be a smaller version of today.

Started off Christmas Eve with seven or eight Swedish meatballs. My aunt made them, and were delicious made in a red current sauce. On the same plate was some cole slaw and some bean salad(green beans mixed with mushroom soup and topped with onion rings). That was around 4PM EST.

Right after eating, my mother tells me not to eat too much because we were having dinner at my aunt's(mom's sister), after leaving my cousin's( on dad's side). My mom didn't see me eat anything obviously. And, here I was, thinking we were just going to my aunt's for desert!

I was pretty well stuffed, and had one slice of turkey, a table spoon full of mashed potatoes for my dinner later on that night.

Ohh, but I made room for desert!. I had a slice of cheesecake and some yule log! When I arrived home last night, I had some Lindors assorted chocolates.

Today, for Christmas, I was told by my parents we were to have bacon and eggs for breakfast. Mom didn't feel like it, so I had my usual cereal this morning. Raisin Bran. For dinner, roast beef with mashed potatoes and a raw carrot. I don't like cooked ones.

The rest of what I ate were these little chocolate Santa Clauses, to top off a Christmas that could have put me in a coma.

Tchoupitoulas · 26-12-2005, 07:26

I only had some chips and soda. The weight of the whole post-Katrina thang finally settled in and just left me with no appetite.

Doc Shmok · 26-12-2005, 09:51

Just stood up and I will have nothing ...
