I'm going to pre order a turkey crown like we do every year tommorow to make sure we get one, everything else can wait till christmas week apart from alcohol and chocolates of course xxx
Love Mrs Edward Cullen x
Mine is the same as last year, I drive my mom to the supermarket, she does the shopping and pays for it and I drive her home ready for my dad to unpack and put the shopping away
I have ordered a Turkey crown from marks and spencers. I have also been buying things when they are on offer, tins of choc, champaigne etc.
Everything else can wait until i brave the supermarkets on xmas week!!!!

I did all mine today i'll just have to get the veg and fresh things nearer the time.
Everyone get your turkeys early my dad said that the supermakets have under ordered this year so they'll be a shortage.
will order mine from the butchers tomorrow,you have reminded me!!!! what size turkey crown does everyone get????
No, don't even know where we are going to be yet!!
not ordered the turkey but have bought loads of tins of chocolate and have eaten them so i will be going shopping on 23rd
I did a load of mine yesterday. Bought all the non perishables and drinks etc and had the boot full! Mostly junk food, but hey, thats why i bought a Wii fit. For the other half thats is...
Got quite a few bits, tins of sweets etc,( minus 1)................ that we opened
Will go out and do a big shop xmas week, including alcohol
Our turkey will still be running around oblivious to its upcoming fate
DH takes time off from our farm and goes plucking at a game farm every year, he starts on Saturday. We usually have a 'casualty' bird (one with a nick in skin or small bruise that can't go to the butchers) - half the price. They supply our local butcher, who then sells them at a much higher price. Sometimes have a wing missing Once it's cooked, no one knows
Usually huge too, loads left for curry and sandwiches.
Not done much else. Daren't buy chocs yet cos they will be all gone by christmas. Did buy crackers at the weekend though
Happy to be back with the Greenies
Got most of our stuff and its hidden under the stairs, out of sight, out of mind. I have been pretty good.
Our meat is all ordered ready to be collected on the 23rd and the fresh stuff needs to be got, but may send DH out for that
Been buying ingredients to make xmas cookies and chutney...
turkey will be ordered from butcher as every year..but havent done it yet
my veg gets delivered by a farmer once a week and the xmas week bag is always stuff for roast turkey dinner so dont need to worry about that one..
apart from that I bought tons of little chocolates to fill the advent calendar...so each LO gets a piece...

Hubbie is allergic to turkey, chicken and duck so we have gammon here. I did try out a slow cooker recipe a few weeks back but i think it has to much taste very sweet and over powers the roast pots ect so not sure what to do with it. Will be getting the bits we can this weekend
I cannot believe how organised everyone is.
Am Christmas shopping tomorrow, off to Carlisle to try and get everyones pressies...heres hoping.
As for food,no idea when that will be, got to get used to living in the middle of nowhere, can't seem to get organised. Oh well theres food in the freezer i'm sure we won't starve.
Got to organise hubbys birthday for the 27th...any ideas?????
Come back David....
Got a few bits and pieces but I am off now on the 23rd so will be hitting the cash and carry for my meat and then veggies. Spend 24th preparng my goodies as I don't like buying them. Cranberry sauce next weekend and then full on it cooking - once the tree is up of course.
Debbie
