Merry Christmas from Swansea
A very Merry Christmas to all of our friends and family from here in Swansea. We very much miss having the comforts of family and friendships today, especially the family we had to leave behind: Pinky, Jenny, Paddington and Trigger…it’s not the same without them. Today we’ll have breakfast and a big lunch here at home after opening some gifts. The traditional British Christmas lunch includes turkey with cranberry sauce, brussel sprouts, roast potatoes and parsnips with Christmas pudding made with currants, cherries, nuts and apricots that is steeped in cognac for dessert. We’ve decided to make prime rib instead of turkey but will keep the remainder of the traditional lunch intact; we even have Christmas crackers and mince pies. Merry Christmas!
