Italian... I'm Italian. :D You know... I make a good spinach lasagne. I think I prefer it to the type with meat actually. And stuffed shells... Yum. I haven't made them in yonks.

The holidays are coming soon and I am thinking maybe this year I will make some specials that I haven't in a couple of years. We'll see.

I know it's early to worry about Christmas/Yule, but it's really only a little more than 2 months away. Would like to know if any of you prepare special dishes at that time of year? And will you share with me? Please?
 
Maid i do have a few dishes that are great prepared that time of year. If i can i will find the recipe that is in my family for Christmas cake and Christmas pudding. Usually it is just a cooked chicken with most vegies, sometimes we have ham too.
 
Funny you should mention the pudding... I was going to start asking around for a recipe so that I could make my own. What does your family serve with yours? Brandy butter or white sauce? Or something else?

Christmas pudding this year (though I may still give it a try) is being hand-delivered fresh from the UK. (Sandy Claws is coming a few days early to my house -- part of the reason I'm so looking forward. :D )
 
Maid i will have to get back to you on what is used with the pudding as i don't know for certain...

lol you are meaning Christmas cake is getting delivered from the UK...sounds like a great one in planned for you :)

A morning cup of tea I think?

Sooo.... who's around?

DM
:rose:

Serves a cup of tea to you with a smile....How are you doing?

~Henry~ .
 
Morning, DM. Looks like Henry and I are around.

Actually, Henry, he is bringing Christmas pudding. For real. :D (They wouldn't let him just send it on its own so I guess he'll have to come along for the flight? :eek: )
 
Maid thats understandable in some ways :)

How are you doing? Can i get you something?
 
*smiles gratefully and sips tea*

I'm doing great thanks Henry ... pleased to meet you :rose:

Ohhh and call me Marianne.... or Mari x
:rose:
 
I'm having kawfee, thanks. :D No one broke in to leave donuts or rolls or anything like that in the night though. You know -- someone has to start training up these burglars right.

DM... Thinking maybe if he really doesn't want to come you could always deliver the pudding in his stead? It's a thought.
 
Ummmmm

Pudding delivery sounds ... fun ... ::ggls::

Ohhhh ... and I'm a sucker for almond croissants ... any possibility?

*bats eyelashes hopefully @ Henry*


Mari x
:rose:
 
smiles and my pleasure Mari...pleased to meet you too...:rose:

great to hear that too...


Maid i'm sure i could find some out the back if you wanted them...
 
Ducks out the back for awhile and returns with some almond croissants for Mari and some donuts for Maid...

enjoy ladies...:rose: :rose:
 
Well, it looks like Maid and Henry and Mari had quite a breakfast. And they even cleaned up after themselves. Henry seems like the perfect host, I wonder if I can get him working here full time. And we do need to fill out the staff if we're going to get through
the busy times.

I guess I should spruce things up a bit just in case someone drops by.

*sips the decadent capaccino and licks her lips slowly.

hey, always happy to have good help. and the ladies seemed pretty pleased with your mixing skills. once in a while, they'll try to trick you and get you to mix a fuzzy pink walrus, or something like that. but you look like you can handle their teasing.

see if they'll tell you their secrets . . . :cool:
