Christmas Pudding

More about the book

Christmas Day was organized by Lady Bobbin with the thoroughness and attention to detail of a general leading his army into battle. No one moment of enjoyment was left to chance. But even Lady Bobbin, superwoman though she might be, could not prevent the day by being marked with a great deal of crossness, much overeating, and a series of startling incidents. The battle opened with the Christmas stockings.
