Today's session has now ended. Thanks to everyone who contributed.
We've now reached 2007's last thrilling episode of Ask Me, and it's a Christmas special: "Tradition is for the Birds".
This week's epistle from under the mistle(toe) is here as back-up for all those who don't want to turn into the usual cook-cum-waitron yet again this year with the same menu, same crackers, same people, same sense of deja vu and imminent spontaneous combustion.
Do something different.
So if you think there's life beyond roast spuds (arguable) or green veg boiled to buggery, tune in at 3pm and let's do some Christmas cookery group therapy where you'll have all your woes eased away ... if not by me, then probably by one of our regular commenters.
I'll even let you in on my family favourite root veg puree, a total winner whether you're too old to have teeth or too young.
And having started you on a different track, the idea will be continued next week in my G2 recipe column, which will feature a stuffing of a different nature - French in its base, but then twisted by the Moors to leave your sage and onion standing.
