Mmmmmost delightful. What's that Omar Kkyyam poem now...?
This has me grinning. Thanks for being so tolerant about our nosiness :-D
Scrummy! :¬)

Ooh, yum, one's hips don't stand a chance. I didn't put nuts on my shopping list, and so I haven't got any, damn!
Your tablecloth is gorgeous.
Looks good to me, too.
Cheers.
What a wonderful array of Christmas delicacies....
Oh, now, that's just mean!
Pour a glass for me...

GG: you are not nosy - just a genuine interest in all things - like me;)
Re Omar - it's the bread I'm a little concerned about. I got all fired up to go shopping via a taxi today, but thought better of it.
Mapstew::)
Eryl: for some reason we have nuts and raisins coming out of our ears. I've been chomping on brazils with my glass of wine.
My mother did the cloth.
Randall: Feast your eyes - it won't last long;)
That all looks very nice.
Interesting, I see that you have a dresser just like mine, except mine has only two cards on it.
Oh, there goes the doorbell; I expect it's my Fortnum and Mason Christmas Hamper.
*minutes later* No, it was just a parcel from Amazon. Disappointed. . .
Sunshine: I'm trying to keep my hands off them till Christmas.
Pearl; Just the one?
Keith: I'm expecting a parcel from Amazon. Are you sure its not mine?
The Goodies from the Hamper, I take it....Lovely, my dear Pat!
WISHING YOU A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS My Dear, and hoping the snow lets up so you can get out and about!
Wishing you both a very merry Christmas, and gosh, won't that hamper contribute towards it?
Warm regardds, Mike and Ann.
Naomi: I saw on Judy's blog you haven't been well. I do hope all is well again.
Mike and Ann: thank you for your good wishes and I hope you have a happy Christmas and a healthy 2011.
Looks like a lovely spread, Pat. Wishing you and your MTL a peaceful and warm Happy Christmas.
I think I need to look up a recipe for Christmas pudding.... I've never eaten it and perhaps LHB would like some next time he's in town. *pops off to google*
Ponita: Most men in my experience like Christmas pudding. It's a long time since I made one but my favourite was a war-time recipe with carrots in it to cut down on sugar.
Hope you have a lovely Christmas.
Wonderful!
Although I have to confess, I don't actually like Christmas pudding much at all. However, as a kid I did love my dad's "Special Cream" which we would slather all over it. He would whip up double cream with a large dash of rum or cointreau and lots and lots of icing sugar.
Heaven :)
I hope you get your bread soon, Pat. Or maybe you can rustle up some pancakes.
Psst, 'genuine interest' = curious? hee hee
Kim: yes I'd relish Christmas pud - or anything really with your Dad's mixture:)
I got the 'backwards' book today. It looks very interesting. See you at Scrabble - I've just won my first - fat chance with you.
GG: did it today thank goodness. Bread etc I mean. Long live 'genuine interest':)
Looks FABULOUS !
Thanks for the photo...
cheers, parsnip
hope you got your Christmas Card I sent ...
Parsnip: the post is up the spout. I'm sure it will come tomorrow:)
