That Time of the Year Again

I am, unexpectadly, having the family round for Christmas Day this year!

Really at a loss for the “dinner”.  I love the idea of roasts and all the trimmings, but in this heat, and with the crowd I want something simpler, and just as delicious!

It will be outdoors, on the patio, hopefully the weather is warm for swimming too.

What are your plans and menu ideas for this day?
