Humbug!

[Herlock Sholmes]

Wishing a Happy and safe Christmas to all on Casebook.

[Enigma]

Thank you Herlock. Wishing you and all the other inmates of the Casebook a merry Christmas and compliments of the season also.

[Ms Diddles]

Happy Christmas to you too Herlock, and to all in Ripper-land.

Stay safe, and here's to a better year in 2022.

Very happy Holidays to everyone on Casebook! I have been indulging myself with chocolate candies, as I'm not a drinker of alcohol. ( I actually don't like the taste of most of it, sorry folks. Except possibly for Bailey's Irish Cream in hot cocoa...yum!)

[Yabs]

Merry Christmas everybody

May your chosen fowl ripen with abundant meats this winter.
For my vegan friends…
May the harvest of your shrub be bountiful in its earthy expression.

Have a happy & safe one

Best wishes to Herlock and all the casebook gang.

Humbug may be right, between Covid & Climate Change Christmas could be rubbish again for the kiddies.
Now they want to close stores down early & limit the number of customers, while outside when we should be knee-deep in snow, there's only a dusting on the grass & nothing on the sidewalks & roads. On top of that it's supposed to rain Christmas eve.
Anyhow, have a Merry Christmas everybody, and as my Da' used to say....

May the best of us get what we need, and the rest get what we deserve.
Happy Holidays.

Merry Christmas everyone!

[Christian]

Merry Christmas one and all be safe and have fun

[Azarna]

Happy Christmas, Herlock - and everyone else on the boards.
I hope you all have a happy and safe one!

[Ms Diddles]

Rejoice!

Today there is much festive jubilation in the Diddles household in relation to a perfectly executed sherry trifle!!

This is without precedent.

Past trifle fails have included my mistaking a glass jug for Pyrex which resulted in glass and jelly juice all over the kitchen, and an overestimation of how much sherry is required resulting in large brown puddles forming when the trifle was served (I secretly quite enjoyed that one, but it looked awful!!).

Usually I get bored and impatient when SLOWLY pouring the jelly mix over the sponge and fruit, resulting in the sponges slowly floating to the surface like a megalodon seeking it's unfortunate prey.

Todays attempt, for the first time ever is text book.

Next up, attempting not to burn the chestnut stuffing.

Congrats Ms D. Good luck with the stuffing.

A woman's work is never done eh. Have a good 'un, Ms D.

Ahhh! This woman's work is now officially done, and a gentleman's work (mixing the negronis!) is just beginning!

You have a lovely festive season too Dickere!
