My Christmas Day Plan...

Hello Everyone :)

So only 3 days to go to Santa :D

 

I’m soo excited mainly because I can’t wait to give my 3 year old nephew/godson his presents and see my 8 month old niece in her cute outfit I got including an adorable red tutu :D

 

 

However, in 3 days we will also be facing the joyous and very Merry Christmas Dinner which inevitably begins anytime around 5/6am for some and may not finish until 2/3am on the morning of the 26^th lol :)

 

 

So do you guys have a plan on how you are going to deal with the food itself? Have any of you made a plan of what your meals, snack and drinks will be during the day?

 

Last Monday I decided I would make up a rough idea of what I will eat throughout the day however if it changes a little that is fine as I’m going to have my 30 dailies and I have 40 weeklies left also but in reality I only want to use max 20-25 of them so I can have a few for St. Stephens Day :)

 

On Christmas Eve I am going to make a large selection of fruit skewers for all the family to enjoy on Christmas Day consisting of lovely fresh pineapple, kiwis, strawberries, grapes and oranges.

Also these cute little Santies will be created if all goes to plan How adorable are they :)

 

So anyway here goes my Christmas Day Meal Plan *subject to change*.

A large selection of vegetables such as carrots & brussel sprouts (0PP)

100g turkey (4PP)

Other snacks to be eaten if and when desired (10PP)

2 curly wurly’s (6PP)

Packet of Velvet Crunch (2PP)

20g of porridge with a serving of stewed apples and ground cloves (2PP)

***************

Some of you may notice I haven’t included potatoes in my dinner. In the last few months I have gotten out of the habit of eating them and find it unnecessary to add them to my meal with the exception of eating out. However, on eh day itself I might change my mind and add 100g of roasted potatoes (using fry lite) for 2PP to my dinner.

The rest of my family will be having my mothers beautiful sherry trifle but I think I'll resist as I love it but usually eat it because it is there not necessarily because I really want to :)

My drinks for the day will be non-alcoholic as in my family, alcohol is never something which was a prominent feature so it will be water, some diet club orange/7UP Free and tea *rock’n’roll*.

 

It isn't difficult to make a rough plan and I would really encourage you all to do so just so you can have an idea of the pro point values of many of the foods :)

I know I'm going to end up feeling like this by the time 10pm comes ;)

Until next time,

 

Grá :)
