Day 4 of our Christmas break was Christmas Eve. James' brother W and his girlfriend P had kindly offered to have us and the boys parents over for lunch. I offered to come over early to help P prepare (although it seems that she actually got up at 3am to prepare so by the time I got there all there was to do was drink champagne...). My contribution to the day was World Famous, but it really did pale in comparison with the enormous effort P (and W?) had gone to for the day. We started with Asian entrees of Rice Paper Rolls and Sushi (I particularly loved the crumbed chicken fillet in the RPR's). After a little intermission we had a full Christmas lunch with all the trimmings - an even more spectacular effort when it was revealed that P doesn't even eat red meat...(my particular favourites were the coloured olives in the salad) and then finished the afternoon off with pedicures, manicures, leftovers, and a snooze in front of the telly - not sure if I can do it again tomorrow!
