There's always chefs on telly around this time giving their top tips on making Christmas dinner. Here's mine.... don't worry about it. Do your prep. Listen to some banging tunes, dance and sing. Make a list. Check it twice. Do your timings. They'll all be wrong. You'll probably forget something. At least one thing will go wrong. Noone will notice or care so don't mention it. Get your potatoes right. They're all anyone cares about. You could serve a bunch of rubbish but the whole thing hinges on your potatoes. Love your potatoes. Make sure at least one is really terrific then take a photo of it and send it to your family and friends as a power play. If anyone responds with a better potato, ghost that person forever. You are the superior potato person now.
@TheBreadmonkey looks like you'll be getting mentioned in many photos of spuds tomorrow. Definitely mine for starters.
I do not have an ancient, handed-down method. They will,.of course, be lovingly roasted and ready at the correct time. Good cooking is just timing from what i can tell.
@phil our friends are in charge of the spuds tomorrow so i am off the hook.
@rothko do you trust them? Will they still be your friends at New Year? I hope so!
@phil LOL actually they brought the spuds to thanksgiving as well, so they've been thoroughly vetted.
@TheBreadmonkey
I’m having roast potatoes with a side of some other stuff
@TheBreadmonkey A fellow potatian! I secretly believe that the One Ring was a perfect potatoe that Frodo just couldn‘t part with. LOTR just makes more sense that way. Of course I will now delete this post without sending.
@TheBreadmonkey roast potatoes i've done in the past.

Time to get ghosted by @TheBreadmonkey (I can't take credit though, all @SaintlySin 's work)
