    I will cook some Cornish game hens, asparagus with garlic, mashed potatoes with garlic, maybe bread rolls. Dessert will be eggnog and chocolate peppermint cookies.

    For me personally, I’m gonna stay up for Christmas Eve and watch NORAD Tracks Santa.

    Always is a great pass time to watch Santa’s journey across the world, and is also a great tool to know his location and to know when he will arrive in your location/area. It’s one of the best things of the Christmas season for sure!

    I’m going to spend Christmas Eve (the day that we celebrate Christmas in Sweden) with my family and cousins. I’d guess that’ll be fine, however I don’t know everyone that well so I’m not too excited for it

    I’ve taken my partner and kids interstate to see family we haven’t seen in 2 1/2 years, whilst bushfires are burning not far from our home.

    We’re due to fly back on Boxing Day, and not sure what we’re going back to yet.

    I’m putting on a brave face for our kiddos, especially our 4 year old who is really into Christmas this year, but we’re terrified what things look like in a couple days.

    The usual, really. Get a nice buzz going on coke and rum, draw, build whatever’s behind door 24 in the Bluebrixx Star Trek advent calendar, make the husband watch Richard II and Hamlet (maybe even Much Ado About Nothing) with me, rewatch Severance season 1, watch a bunch of bad movies. Mostly watch stuff, basically.

    Going to a nursing home to visit my grandmother today, then preparing some of the dinner for tomorrow. Tomorrow doing the whole Santa gifts routine, preparing the dinner and moving furniture around to prepare for guests. Have dinner, have some fun with the guests, then relax the rest of the day and watch TV.

    Already did the family thing on Sunday and survived.

    My partner and I will be celebrating with friends, they are also not Christmas and especially family Christmas fans. We are just going playing jack box, baldur’s gate and probably some board games. So I’m a bit excited for first Christmas day, but we will not do anything traditional Christmasy.

    It’s for me one of the most stressful time’s of the year.

    Today i helped the hostel owner make a Christmas tree. It was fun. He did most of the work but I sat back and supervised, regaling him of tales of all the times I’ve been really drunk in Christmas eve.

    Were going out to a bar later to try and emulate the experience.
