Thanks.

I enjoy cooking christmas dinner as it allows me to play about with some traditional foods by adding or changing something here and there, and many o f those foods are great by themselves, add them together and oh my god. If you think a full English breakfast is heavy on the stomach, wait until you’ve had one of my christmas dinners.

So good.

Probably the same amount of calories a healthy person eats in a week. But so worth it.
