My first Christmas as hostess

Rather than traditional turkey I cooked a leg of spring lamb with potato wedges and carrots, more like a Sunday roast! But it was my first time for either so I thought, why not combine the two?

 Ingredients!!

 Roasted aubergine dip

 Before....

 Stockings

 R's gifts, K refused to have his photographed!

 Joint gifts

 Watching Christmas family films!!

 After

 Dessert spread. In our excitement, I forgot to take a photo of the actual Christmas lunch spread!

Boxing Day, R woke me up with just as much enthusiasm as Christmas Day itself proclaiming ''mummy! we need a big cardboard box to throw our junk in!' That got me out of bed because I love having a clear out!

Loving Christmas!
