Christmas Eve we had our traditional English fry-up. Eggs, baked beans, tomatoes and mushrooms, bacon, sausage, and toast. Hot English mustard was the condiment of choice.
Christmas morning or should I say... late Christmas mid morning I made these scrumptious raspberry puff pastries with vanilla sugar on top. Easy to make and sweet; they kept us going along with the buck fizz until dinner was ready.
Christmas Day dinner... we kept it very simple this year with a herbed beef and vegetable stew, dumplings and stuffing with bacon. Also a selection of Fortnum & Mason Christmas marzipan were enjoyed for dessert.
And the fun didn't stop there, Boxing Day was celebrated with friends and all sorts of nibbles.
Of course our guests left with a selection of my holiday baking.
