Ugh I have to go outside and get the smoker up and running and I just can't be hosed. It's warm and cozy and I'm sleepy.

Mix it with coke and you get an alcoholic drink that is almost indistinguishable from Dr Pepper.

Mix it with cranberry juice over ice with an orange garnish and you get Christmas cake in a glass.

Gosh you lot are perky, I’m still in bed having a tea. I wouldn’t even be awake yet if I hadn’t drunk so much last night.

I honestly have no idea how I managed to wake up at 6 every Christmas morning as a child. I always had trouble sleeping the night before too.

I am choosing to believe you mean one of these two defintions:

(informal, dated, Britain, Cambridge University) A social event featuring sketches, songs, etc., whether or not smoking is carried out.

A vent in the deep ocean floor from which a plume of superheated seawater, rich in minerals, erupts.

Seconding this, amaretto and cranberry makes a drink that tastes remarkably close to a cherry bakewell

They're also an ecological disaster in the quantity they get released in to the British countryside. They're a major factor in driving our adders to extinction.

"When I was a girl, around 12 or 13, I had a fantasy that I'd grow up to marry Captain Scarlet, but he'd be busy fighting the Mysterons so I'd cuckold him with the sexiest people I could think of - Nigel Mansell, Pat Sharp and Mr. Blobby."

Isn't the fact that pheasants are dumb a key plot point in Danny Champion of the World? Their scheme depends on it.

Nut roast for dinner for me.

Merry Christmas all. Cooking my first ever Christmas dinner (though not quite- we’re having beef, not turkey) in an air fryer due to a messed up tale of electrical incompetence by various parties.

Got a friend coming across from Sheffield who just came out as NB and got cut off from their family as a result. gently caress our old assorted Christmas traditions- we’ll make our own better ones with blackjack and hookers.

I suspect champagne in the hot tub will happen at some point this arvo.

Hey man. That sounds bad. I hope you're OK. I hope you're not entirely serious (or at all serious) , but if you are then please don't do anything drastic, but just shitpost here instead.

Go for the light olive oil. If you can get to a shop some rapeseed oil is best.

Would olive oil work? I thought it had too low of a smoke point. Never tried making yorkies with it, vegetable oil or lard is all I've ever known to be used.
