Re: Would you / could you. ?
I saw her being interviewed on telly the other day Nom, and viewers were emailing in calling her everything.Re: Would you / could you. ?
I can see both sides to this. As someone who is always providing the food I know how expensive it is to find Christmas fare, including the drink. It is not only the providing either it is the thinking what to have and the cooking of it and the worry about whether everyone will enjoy it all. If everybody does actually "muck in" by bringing things and contributing a dish or plonk then that is different, but to have to do it all out of a single household budget can make quite a dent in it and seems a bit unfair, especially if it is every year. That's aside from being chained to the kitchen cooking and acting host, which means a day's work and not much relaxing looking after other folk. This lady did also say that she provides for her ex and his family - not sure I would want to do that. Perhaps she should suggest that every family goes on a rota and they take it in turns each year to host Christmas Day. If they don't come forward to take a turn, I don't think I would be happy doing it year on year, especially if nobody brings anything. Bah humbug - see I am feeling the pressure of our lot descending on me already - and its only 2nd December.Re: Would you / could you. ?
I cant find it in me to condemn her, in these days money can be tight for many, so she has to feed and entertain 16 that quickly mounts up.Re: Would you / could you. ?
I can understand her doing it especially for 16 people with all the pressies, food and trimmings etc - not saying it's right or wrong. If anyone objects, they can always sling their hook
