On Christmas eve we went for dinner round with some new friends, and cooked and ate a feast of sauerkraut, boeuf de bourguinon and potatoes, after which we watched a film.
Sunday was nice and relaxed too.
I cooked a turkey for the first time, and it was great. I smothered it with butter and herbs, and it was soft and juicy and tender and yummy. Still is, indeed.
Mr Pickled Cabbage and I exchanged gifts, and in return for the Kindle and wind up pocket watch which I got him, I got an awesome camera, an egg lamp which has many, many, many different colours, and a moka pot. I'm happy to say that I've now got the hang of all of these things, and have been sipping tast coffee while writing this.
During food and after, we started watching the latest adaptation of the Sherlock Holmes stories. In summary it's set in modern day London, has Benedict Cumberbatch as Holmes, and Martin Freeman as Watson. I could go on about how much I liked it, but I won't, as my fingers are getting tired from all the writing. All I'll say is that I'm greatly looking forward to the new episodes, starting on NYD.
...I really can't be bothered to write anything else. I have kittens to interfere with.
