Sometimes life is too short for puff pastry, but when it's a special occasion...<br /><br />Kavey - thanks!<br /><br />Su-Lin - I had a turkey Christmas dinner at my work canteen. Made me even happier that we were having beef...<br /><br />GC - Ah, nothing better than an array of roasted meats. <br /><br />Gin and Crumpets - thanks! the wine bottle worked pretty well. <br /><br />Noodle - it must be a knack I have!

I agree turkey is over rated. Usually I have eaten far too much of it by the time it gets to Christmas. We have goose, duck, chicken and ham.

As the queen of baking with (store bought) puff pastry (I think it's the Bed and Breakfast owner's salvation about mid season when oh god WHO wants to bake anymore).
