Current status:

- Basting of chicken and potatoes continues
My tip for cream is lots of vanilla and sugar.
Chicken and roast potatoes looking good so far.
The secret to moist chicken and flavourful potatoes is basting. Lots of basting.
Current status:

I had asked one of the guests to get the specifc biscuits I have for Christmas, and they were only able to find 1 of the 4.

Wee Blåhaj@JesALady I think the melon starters could still be declared kekf.
@Weehaj The true kekf is not the cherry on top, it's the pudding, biscuits, and hot chocolate courses. They're worried about getting stuffed too early.
@JesALady Also, is Dr Blåhaj a twin?
@Weehaj Just because Dr. Blåhaj and Mx. Blåhaj look similar to human eyes, first publicly appeared at the same conference, and live together doesn't mean that they're twins.
No comments as to whether they're really good friends.
@JesALady Ah! Hello, Mx Blåhaj! I don’t think we’ve spoken before. I can see why you both keep your badges with you though. Do they act as train tickets, too?
