- So you've got one of them too! I had a wonderful Christmas Day this year....
- I didn't do any cooking in 100 degree heat; just put all the goodies in
- bowls and on platters and threw them on the table; handed each one a plate
- and said "Go for it!"... which of course they did like ravenous beasts....
- but the best part was no-one complained and I, for the first time, didn't feel
- totally washed out by the time evening arrived.
