My mums in a nursing home now, tried looking after her at home but it was a two person job. Don't have any other family so I think I'll make my traditional bowl of smoking bishop and share it with my neighbour.
Other than that not really a christmasy kind of guy. Although it's been perverted horribly in my lifetime into just another day of selling tat.
I'm in a similar situation although my mother's still at home for now. My uncle and maybe my aunt (who's already in the local nursing home) will be here on Christmas Day, which is a silly and awkward arrangement since I'm an atrocious host and cook, but it's somehow become customary. I guess it beats the alternative which is zero meaningful human contact on Christmas, but I would like to have the chance to try that one year.
An online friend of mine mentioned smoking bishop the other day. I've never tried it but I'm curious. Could be a sign to mix some up for myself. You got a secret recipe?
I just use tasting history's recipie. Always wondered what it was, turns out it's quite nice
