 The men in gardenstew probably wont appreciate this but I thought Id have a laugh and tell you about little christmas and the way it is celebrated in some parts of Ireland. In traditional households it is the men who do the cooking and cleaning on this day in recognition of all the hard work that women have done over the christmas  shopping and shopping and o yes shopping. Anyone got any good recipes to that I can cook for love of my life Bugs

Well I cooked the dinner and it was a great success. Turkey and ham and all the usual trimmings. I have to say I really enjoyed it. My wife and I went to the supermarket and I think most of her friends were suprised to find she had a real man in her life . This morning she asked me if I would like to go again . . I told it would be too much excitment for me so soon and I might leave it until next year Bugs
