FabSwingers.com forum: Left over from Christmas…

I’ve just found a bottle of gingerbread flavoured mulled wine, zapped some in the microwave and very nice it is too.

Anybody else got remnants? The Eggnog that made your Mum feel sick, the brandy butter with only one scoop out of it that your Auntie had on a mince pie which is now hiding in the fridge door tray behind the cranberry sauce?

I think I spotted a sealed tray of M&S pigs in blankets in the freezer.

No, the Baileys all went Boxing Day evening watching The Longest Day.

Stollen made it to middle of January!?!?

How is that even possible?

I bet that is going to taste epic. You can’t eat it before the proper seasonal accoutrements become available again.

Simple custard will not do

8 years old. There are pets with shorter life spans. Petrification isn't a recommended method of food preservation you know.

Just because you found them under a wad of crusty tissues and dust bunnies, it’s still theft you know.

Are you suggesting it’s petrified every time I open the cupboard and it can see my face?

I have polished off all the Christmas related food in mines but my mum still has some cheese in her fridge. She ended up moaning at me because I was eating Stilton and she hates the smell.

P in B gravy is most likely a sentient life form now. I urge caution and having A and E on speed dial.

Let us know how it goes. When we see Hornycouga status as 6 months last on Fab we’ll know….

I know right.. I’ve tried to farm things off on visitors but had no takers and seeing as I’ve been stuck here I’ve not been able to take them anywhere!

If I can peel the icing off can I have a bit. Marzipan is better than Tupperware.

I found a cake tin in the pantry with Christmas cake, at least three years old. Funny thing is I love Christmas pudding, but not keen on Christmas cake. Anybody want to come and eat it?

Re-gift the Cashews, it's only 11 months to go. Remember cool and dark and away from strong odours is the recommendation.

To be clear its the granules I still have not the actual Xmas day gravy. That would have grown legs and walked from my Christmas residence to my current abode by now!

Maybe repurpose as a wedding cake base layer? It’ll probably be older than the marriage lasts

I see, it was already dehydrated is what you’re saying, and not desiccated as a result of sitting in the corner unit carousel next to the bread maker you used once in 2007.

Keep the P in G gravy granules safe, those fancy limited editions will be worth a fair bit, more if the seal is unbroken.

Those members of the household should be force-fed the Petite Pud. “No there’s no brandy cream, no, there’s no coins in it, no… no flames. look just EAT IT! I need the cupboard space and the bin men won’t take it”

I've only got chocolate, so not really a leftover.

But I bought some Hot Cross Buns this week so I'm now fully focussed on the road to Easter...

A bottle of mulled wine & a bottle of gingerbread mulled wine.

We don't really buy much as "extras" over Christmas so rarely get anything leftover

We have a pack of mystery meats that has yesterday’s date on, I’ll probably eat that over the weekend.

If it’s a bit off it might give my January diet a kick start

I become a fan of blue cheese one day because I came home smashed from the pub, all takeaways were closed and it was legit the only thing I had left in the house.

That's kinda close.
