All done apart from alcoholic drinks; which I'll get this evening, or my daughter will get tomorrow.

We're not big drinkers at Christmas but we like a Baileys and a couple of drinks with and after dinner.

I need more pâte or an alternative starter. If I can't get anything it doesn't matter because nobody is going to go hungry and I can wing it.

It all done and festive by Aldi and Lidl.

Got to defrost the goose tonight. I managed to get 4 lobster tails so continue the tradition of making everyone jealous of my seafood starters.

FYI I live alone but that means I literally have no reason to leave the house in January. lol!..except for work and exercise. Lol!

Jesus! The goose was bought in November from Lidl frozen section and the alcohol was bought on sale from Waitrose. I bought the danish butter cookies from Waitrose and ate them all for dinner on Wednesday...oops.. Was tempted to buy another one but I want my cholesterol to at least read below the statin level come February. Lol! GP would love to give me more drugs.

Yesterday I went to two Lidl's and two Aldi's and Asda got everything else.

If it was just goose and alcohol I would still be happy. The butter cookies have been replaced with stollen, a mini pudding, a giant pandora, a slice of ice Christmas cake and a chocolate log. I live alone....Lol! I hope I never have to go food shopping until February. Lol!

I would cheat too if I could afford it and the things that I actually want were on Uber.

My inlaws have decided about a hour ago they're coming over for Christmas lunch.

So yeah, I've got a few things to get. It's fine. I'm going to buy two Starbucks caramel waffle sugar overload mocha thingeymajigs and smile through the shopping tomorrow.

I went yesterday. As most Fridays

. Superstore opened at 6am instead of normal 7am. Very busy when I arrived.

. Food shopping done and no intention of going to any shop today. Unless emergency. Not something that I can do without. My only going out will be later today about 1800hrs. This to deliver presents to female friend and her family
