1. I’m going to stay in until everyone else hits the sales and then I’m going to burgle their houses.
2. I do hope this isn’t an indication of your diet young Kevin.
3. Anything that can be reached from a prone position on the sofa – probably crisps, twiglets and pine needles.
4. There are no goats in this area – I might chuck Gertrude under the chin though.
5. I might go for a walk and buy myself some chocolates as I didn’t receive any this Christmas at all at all at all ……. tsk
1- I can’t face more shops…it will pass though
2- anyone else eats dripping on toast or I have I joined a weird family?
3- cheese and red wine is the best and dreaded cold turkey of course!
4-play with the new toys at least once
5-walk love walks!
1. I’ve just got back from the sales, but sadly didn’t see anything I liked, guess I’m just fussy!
2. Oh that’s just so GROSS!
3. Virtually the same as Christmas day, minus the crackers and hats!
4. Watch a film!
5. Box of chocolates, the walking can wait till after Christmas
1.No sales in Portugal…yet!They start in January.It’s not bank holiday but most people does not work today.
2.Dripping on toast????!!!I guess not…
3.Light meals…black coffee without sugar and no sweets.

3. Leftovers.
4. No kids, so playing with myself, I mean I am watching a film…
5. Not fussed on chocolates and to lazy for walking today
Hope everyone had a lovely day
1. Stay In. I’m opting for gradual purchases over this next year.
2. I opt for a cream based meat sauce over hearty breads.
3. I’ve just been introduced to it, so I’m not very partial. Over the next year I’m planning on checking in with friends as to what they like, and making choices for the next celebration.
4. Both, in home film with family and bouts of relentless chess to prove I can’t be overtaken by any blood of mine.
5. Chocolates, a few days of recuperating from the holiday and having to return to work the next immediate day, otherwise a walk would be nice.
1. Are you going to stay in or hit the sales?
It’s 4:14 pm and I’m still wearing jammie pants. It’s pretty safe to say I’m not doing any more shopping. Not even for food. Nope. We’re going to eat what’s here until we’re eating leftover wrapping paper. I hear there are no calories and no saturated fats in that anyway.
2. Do you eat dripping on toast for breakfast?
Well usually I towel off after the morning shower, but I guess if I was really hungry I might eat while dripping on my toast and jam.
3. What is a typical Boxing Day Meal for you?
It’s like how they named the day… leftovers!
4. Watch a film on TV or play with kids?
Well, so far it’s been blogging because #1 kidd lives on his own and won’t be over until supper, #2 kid had to work at her job and $3 kid is busy outside making a snow ramp for the snowskate his mom and dad were
stupidkind enough to get for him. It was his heart’s desire… that and a broken leg I suppose. One will facilitate the other I have a feeling…5. Go for a walk or open box of chocolates?
I’m sure I’ve never whined about this before, but #3 has a paper route which means rise at 5:30 am and deliver papers in the COLD at 6:00 am. That would mean I have gone for a walk before many were even awake. I won’t lie though. I have consumed chocolates. I didn’t have to open a box though… I made them from scratch the other day!
1) I hit just one store in search of vitamin E infused socks and a pair of jeans for the husband. It was not crowded and I did not have to wait in any queues. And I saved money.
2) Unless that is granola, no.
3) This is only my second one but we had leftovers and veggiedogs with fries.
4) Both. Kung Fu Panda and time with the doll house.
5) I hit the gym for a walk after my rather tame shopping experience. The chocolates were opened yesterday and the husband has made it his mission to empty the box. Chocolate makes my tummy hurt, so I haven’t even looked to see what is in the box.
