Here's the Season to be Jolly........

Christmas Eve and Christmas Day was spent at Leon and Elizma's house. It really was a lovely 2 days, with way too much food, but great company, and great atmosphere (especially with their lovely little fireplace roaring....)

On Christmas Eve we over-ate ourselves on a finger buffet, followed by opening our presents. We were all there (and then some), for the first time in 7 years - Dad, Mom, Leon, Elizma, me, my little dog Murphy and 0.5 (Leon and Elizma's unborn child).

Johan and Celia, good friends of Leon, joined us on Christmas day and we all enjoyed the following:

Goat's Cheese and Caramelised Onion Filo Tartlets with Rocket and Balsamic Vinegar

ooOoo

Beef Wellington

Leg of Lamb (with Mint Sauce)

Rice

Goose Fat Roast Potatoes

Sweet Potatoes

Creamed Spinach

ooOoo

Apple Strudel with Butterscotch Sauce and Creme Fraiche

So as you can tell, we ate like Kings!!!!

Merry Christmas to all my friends and family out there! Hope you all experienced a peaceful festive season, and that your biggest gift for the next year will be peace and good health!!
