For our family, Christmas Day is always a day of excess.
I can’t see that changing any time soon.
So, instead of trying to eat sensibly and avoid everything that, well, makes Christmas Christmas, I decided I’m going to eat whatever I want today.
Then the excess stops Monday night, and I’ll get back to eating sensibly again.
So today was croissants for breakfast, then a few fruit mince pies, then lunch (which was ham, salad and roast potatoes), then dessert (pavlova), followed by more mince pies.
I feel like I’ve eaten enough for a week. I probably have. But I’ve also thoroughly enjoyed Christmas.
Monday night it’s all back to normal, and back to plan.
In the meantime, I hope everyone reading this has had a wonderful Christmas.
Best wishes from Dunedin, New Zealand 🙂🎄🎄🎄
