Half of the fun is the preparation. I am always in charge of the salads - pasta salad, seafood, Greek, etc. We usually have a buffet-type selection of salads, vegies and meats but this year my Mum has a bee in her bonnet about having a traditional Christmas roast dinner. So my salads will have to wait...

I worry about my Mum cooking in such HOT weather like it traditionally is here - even though home is air-conditioned - its up near 100 degrees in the kitchen when the cooking is being done. But I am not arguing with my Mum and she insists on doing it all herself. ;0)

I hope you will take LOTS of pix. do you do digital shots?

that is a hot kitchen! it has been a long time since our families have had the large get togethers. I recall them growing up & into my teen years. all the aunts; uncles; cousins.. each of my parent was from family of 7 siblings.. so big get togethers. Lots of people. lots of noise & lots of food went with lots of laughter & fun

Hope you have lots of fun & joy with your loved ones.
