Let daughter, or son, or at least someone else, do it. I think I've now retired from being Mrs Xmas on the cooking front.

Will never let go of the baking or the present buying though. Or putting the decs up. tchsmile

Go vegetarian. Reduces the cooking load by half.

I am a good cook, yet find keeping everything hot at the end extremely difficult. I wouldnt dream of buying ready cooked 'anything'.Although I dont blame anyone for doing so.
I Cook... Turkey Stuffing Pigs in blankets Bread sauce Cranberry sauce (can serve cold) Roast potatoes Red cabbage Roast parsnips Sprouts with chesnuts Peas and carrots (together) and ofcourse gravy.
I do all the prep on Xmas Eve, but there is always this terrible panic at the end. I have no excuse as I have a double oven, and 2 microwaves. Any tips out there pleeese?
