Christmas dinner isn’t like any regular mid-week dinner.
It requires days of preparation. From picking out the perfect turkey for the centre of the table, to making sure your Christmas cake is just right, the stress of making the meal can actually take away the fun of the day if you’re the one lamped with it.
