Do you have yours at home or go out to eat on christmas day? I would love a break from cooking the christmas dinner - but .... because people who work on christmas day to cook these dinners give up what i call "family time" expect a good hourly wage for this service of which i agree with BTW , but it would be nice if i could be waited on, on christmas day and before you shout " your husband could " he CANT COOK !! (not a christmas dinner anyway. Do you go out for yours??

I love nothing better than setting the MR out into the warzone (we call the livingroom with all it's toys) and set him the challange of battery filling and putting together toys in strict supervision of my 3yr old son, while I blissfully walse throught he kitchen cooking up a mean christmas dinner with all the trimmings! (Christmas CD on of course!)
I love it.................

Normally we stay in.
However, my Grandmother decided to invite my entire family around to my parents house for Xmas lunch and land my Mum with the cooking.
I therefore hastily suggested that we go out, in order to give my Mum a rest (I would have cooked instead, but I would never have got Mum to stay out of the kitchen).

My husband always cooks the Christimas dinner, I just couldn't get it all cooked at the same time.

Working in the parcel delivery industry, Christmas dinner is a bit of an afterthought. It's a last minute scrabble to complete the shopping - not just for Xmas lunch either, milk and bread are usually in short supply.
BUT - I am not prepared to pay the rates that most places are charging to eat out, based on the fact that most food put in front of us is of an inferior standard to what a 12 year old whips up at school.
So, it will be frantic shopping at the last minute (food delivered by Sainsburys) and so tired that you barely enjoy the food you cook for your guests anyway!

For the last few years my husband and I gone to see the grandkids for a couple of hours and then gone out for Christmas Lunch and it has always been good. Unfortunately husband decided to up and leave so it won't be happening this year.
