Yes, well, someone had to mention it ... so it may as well be me 
I'm cooking this year ... with one friend coming to share the day with me, & maybe 2 more friends to come
I'll be fine once the dinner is on the table ... & having watered down rose down my neck to take the edge of the stress of cooking Christmas dinner, something I've not done for a few years
My son & future daughter-in-law will be coming over in January for my birthday & we will make a fuss of things then 
What are your plans for Christmas & New Year ?
