I'm in favour of duck, goose, or ham. If we can find a decent ham, we might do that.

My family and I are difficult eaters. I and my sister don't eat ham and my mother doesn't eat goose. I'm not sure about duck. I can't remember ever eating duck. I'll look up some recipees.
Thanks!

Corn casserole...? What should I imagine when hearing that? Let me go check wikipedia...
Oh and my mum just called me and said she bought the ingredients for the broccoli pie or whatever. Her way of making me cook what she likes
Broccoli pie it is then. Now all that's left is dinner...

In french terms, corn casserole would be a gratin of corn kernels. Older recipes would call for corn scraped off the cob, but since the advent of frozen vegetables it's more commonly done with frozen whole kernel corn.

Yay! Almost vacation!!! *hears the Christmas bells starting to ring* Yesterday I had to work in black with a red tie and a santahat with a bell on my head... It was the first time I was allowed to work with my hair loose. It looked quite silly, but that and the winterbuffet with all kinds of Dutch winterfood and the Christmasmusic really brought me in the Christmasmood!!!
Tonight I have to work at a convention for singles (so they can try and find a date to celebrate Christmas with at the last moment) but I was told they might expect us to wear girl-santa clothes. Fortunately I am very tall for a girl, so I'll probablt won't fit the suits meaning I can just walk around in normal waitress outfit. Always knew my height would come in handy!

The dinner was nice Unfortunately my mother got sick, so we had to leave the rest of the family early, but she said she enjoyed herself very much anyway, so it was okay.
Tomorrow grocery shopping for the homemade dinner We still haven't decided on the menu though.

Christmas Eve's not far away now...

We Scandinavians only have to wait till Christmas Eve to get on with the celebrations and presents. To us, the 24th is the real deal

Merry Christmas everyone!

I like opening presents Christmas morning, because then Christmas takes place over two days. We always do stuff in Christmas Eve too.

When I was in Sweden I actually spent Christmas with relatives in England, but I can only imagine how awesome it would have been there too; considering the wonderful feasts we would have for no apparent reason, I bet Christmas dinner was phenomenal.

Though, before the Christmas break there was a Christmas dinner put on by the student union and it was, of course, amazing. There was two kinds of lox (lax) which I remember to this day. Also lots of singing and drinking.

You Swedes sure know how to party.
