Round one of Christmas done
I'm easily confused l know. Since my partner is Swedish she insists that Christmas is celebrated yesterday and so Christmas presents are under the tree, candles are lit and the smorgasbord (or smörgåsbord, as it's written in Swedish) has been prepared with all the classic dishes: Christmas ham, pork sausages an egg and anchovy mixture (gubbröra), herring salad, pickled herring, home-made liver pâté and on and on all washed down with OP Anderson "Aquavit"

That was last night.
So today we are having another Christmas celebration British style but with a heavy influence from France since thats where we live. I've made the mince pies and stuffed the duck ready for roasting ....l need a sit down and a cup of strong black coffee
