"Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe, help to make the season bright"

So this Christmas, like all other years, has been a blast!

Approximately two days spent in the kitchen but it's all worth it.

In fact, I think the most enjoyable part is the preparations in the kitchen.

To have many cooks and not spoil the food.

Special thanks to dad, mum, my sis and B and most of all, J.

A very Merry Christmas to you"
