Merry Christmas to everyone who is alone or sad or broken tonight

Some folks don't have good people in their family, or they have lost those good people, or are separated from them. Holidays can very hard. I'm lucky to have good family to cook for and know it. Hope you're all doing okay whether you celebrate or not.

I tick all those boxes, plus one more as I'm actually sick and even if I'd wanted to socialise, etc. I can't. it's not covid (got tested a week ago). Bacterial respiratory infection. it's going away. But the first time in my whole life I'm actually ill on Christmas day and it isn't caused be personal excessiveness (like too much partying the night before, etc.).

I have cold beer and plenty of home made frozen meals to pick from for my dinner.

My mum who passed away Dec 23 last year used to make legendary Xmas baked dinners on Xmas day when she was still with all her faculties (last 10 years that wasn't the case). I have never made a baked dinner and despite it being summer here in Australia I want to try it one day.

@zonavar68 Hope you get better and that you can make that dinner some time!
