However, sticking to tradition, we always have hot vegetables and gravy accompanying the meal. Another year, was chilly and there was actually snow in the alps on Boxing Day. It was the only time I had ever heard of it snowing in Victoria at Christmas time. With the climate, it didn't settle though. The afternoon is usually spent, playing with our gifts,putting batteries in toys and feeling quite lethargic after a huge and wonderful meal.
Evening meal is leftovers from lunch.
It's nice to finish off Christmas with our friends and family together. Again with tradition, we always make sure the tree and all decorations are down before the 12th day after Christmas as my mother used to say it's bad luck to have them up after this time.
