Christmas 2020

I'm many courses and a bunch of booze deep in to polish Christmas
Already scored a really good bottle of wine and some good new fry pans
Shit is going good so far

I've had a cracking Xmas eve, had friends over for 7hrs, eaten and drank way too much, but still managed to get the table tennis table set up just now for kids pressie tmrw morning (if you'd ever seen me on the tools, you'd understand what an achievement that was for me)
Tomorrow could be a touch dusty, but will be fun.

I do recall some advice from @Crucial (pretty damn sure it was him) god knows how many years ago about not using plastic bowls and utensils. Something to do with fat remaining remaining attached to it and fucking up the structure of the fluffy eggs.
I've always had my suspicions, with all that cooking knowledge, that @Crucial is really Heston Blumenthal

Well dressing up like that for the missus would be concerning

And to all you Polish chicks, Wesolych Swiat
My Polish is quite rusty as I left when I was a just a young lass, and given who it is coming from I thought that is just as likely to be "get fucked" as "Merry Christmas".
So Wesolych Swiat to you all, (and you can take that however you like).

Hopefully the Palestinian and Jordanian don't both just bring hummus and bread
Hopefully the Palestinian and Jordanian aren't both thinking "hope the Kiwi doesn't do Pavlova - it's just meringue and whipped cream FFS. Yeah and isn't it dinki di Aussie anyway?"
Yep! You need to do a rolled shoulder of Christmas lamb, @Nepia!!
We're already doing a roast chicken as the "main" - plus I live in inner city Sydney, like I can afford lamb after paying my accomodation costs.
I've got 2.5kgs of rolled pork loin going cheap...comes infused with the Northern Beaches Rona
Hahaha, I'll head over grab it, get tested, go into iso and sit at home for Xmas playing PS4 but well stuffed with pork.
Just checked it on the ferry for you bro, and I threw in one of these that I spotted at my local Coles today - you're set!
Sorted.
So made my pav last night - spectacular failure. I last made one when I was 13. I knew I shouldn't have followed in online recipe that called it The Great Aussie Pav.
I'm going to give it another shot tonight, but I'm going to grab a Harris Farm/Coles one as a just in case back up.
Should have said I'd bring boil up.
No
