My Christmas family feast

Photo: Christmas, a marvellous time!

My favourite time of the year
Is a marvellous time of excitement and I admit, a tinge of fear.
For it’s Christmas
With the food oh so scrumptious
Loads and LOADS of it, so utterly delicious!

It starts off with Christmas lunch
Made by Nonna full of love
Lasagne so good, no doubt inspired from food spirits above.
Filled with layers of bolognese sauce
It’s simmered for hours and hours

For a taste explosion of hearty rich southern flavours.

And then off for dinner
Only a few hours later
For a huge Christmas spread that took hours and hours to cater.
Baked turnip, golden potatoes, sweet pineapple
Honey basted ham, juicy roast turkey
Fresh prawns, smoked salmon and tender pork with apples oh so saucy.



Photo: Tiramisu - loaded with alcohol! ;p


Then to top it all off
The finale:
Mango pudding, sticky date with butterscotch sauce
And tiramisu – it’s Christmas, so loads of alcohol of course!
