christmas eve dinner?

does anybody have a big dinner on christmas eve?

Yes, we have party food, mashed potatoes & pickles - it's a bit of a tradition. We also have a bottle of sparkling wine, and watch ghost stories (woman in black & m.r. James).

We always go out to eat

Our tradition is to get totally sloshed and wait til the kids are asleep and set everything up for Xmas Day.. We usually just have snacks on Xmas eve, and wash them down with plenty of drinkies And ALWAYS suffer on Xmas day from hangovers and sleep deprivation

You watch Woman in Black and M.R. James. I run and hide in my bedroom.

You mad person...

For Christmas Eve dinner I cook a large ham and have pickles with it, and cheese and crackers, nibbles really.

Also might have some gravadlax which is cured salmon, a Scandinavian tradition, my FIL is from Finland and we are carrying on this tradition.

woman in black is a pile of * ALL versions

But no we don't do anything xmas eve me and the OH are both working nights that night anyway

We used to always get some fast food and sit in the living room and watch a film together, but since I have a gluten intolerance, everyone else has fast food and I have expensive restaurant food so I don't feel left out good times.

Nah. As eve is a day for last min shopping

Chinese and a bottle of Jim Beam.
