CHRISTMAS TIMES TWO

We celebrated on Christmas Eve at our house with a seafood and salad buffet, a fruit platter and Christmas cake.
Prawns, Moreton Bay Bug and Snapper fish hiding behind the prawns.

Only a small crowd this year. Carol, David and his parents, Alma and Bill.
 On Christmas Day we went to Alma and Bill's house and had traditional turkey and ham with roast potatoes and vegetables. It was delicious. There was also trifle and pudding.
Two happy, full reindeer.

 More Christmas bokeh.
Now the diet begins.

  4. Merry Christmas to you all, Diane. I remember Bill and Alma from last year? Oooh, do I know what you're saying about the diet. Mmm. We've just returned from a ten-day safari across Kenya so I'll post sometime later. Hugs Jo

  6. A DIET!!!!
    C'mon, the day the word "DIET" is put into action at the Bohlen household, we will be watching a flock of pink pigs flying across the sky!!!
    Now I must find my binoculars and search the skies above.

    Oh dear my mouth is salvinating just looking at those prawns!

    Cheers

    PS: I'll phone you the moment I see those "pink pigs"!!!!!

  7. Lovely memory-making shots Diane. As for the diet, I received a new slant on it's interpretation -
    "Did I Eat That?"! Have a great New Year.

  11. Bokeh - a new word for me. I googled it. Now I have a word for how I see the world when I take off my glasses and look at the lights at night! I've got natural bokeh vision! LOL.

    Merry Christmas Diane...your meals are very tempting! Yes, the diet...I guess we all need to get serious about that now. I sure do!
