Sun’s out
Bring sunscreen. Turning yourself into a Christmas ham is not festive participation.
A FIRST-TIME HOSTING MIRACLE
For a gloriously overcatered Aussie Christmas featuring cold drinks, hot weather and at least one relative saying, “I won’t have much.”
THE CHRISTMAS GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ALYCE AND ALEX
After years of attending Christmas like freeloading wise men, we’re finally hosting. Expect love, laughter, enough food to violate several commandments and enough festive ambition to concern the neighbours.
Bring sunscreen. Turning yourself into a Christmas ham is not festive participation.
We’re serving the traditional Australian summer feast in 34-degree heat.
Bad jokes encouraged. Bad behaviour reviewed case by case.
BOOK OF ATTENDANCE
Tell us who’s coming, how many small humans you’re transporting, and anything we should know before buying seventeen kilos of prawns.
THE SACRED GUEST LIST
0 groups · 0 glorious souls currently expected.
Nobody has confessed attendance yet.
DEMOCRATIC FESTIVITY
Vote for the official dress code. Democracy is sacred, unless the result is boring, in which case the host reserves the right to perform a festive coup.
ROASTS, DRINKS & PAVLOVA
Nominate a dish before everyone brings potato salad and we accidentally create the whitest buffet in Queensland.
The table is barren. Be the miracle.
A FESTIVE PAPAL DECREE
Save your money, your wrapping paper and the annual panic-buy of a candle called “Coastal Serenity.” The adults already have the greatest gift of all: not having to buy one another anything.
Keep the present-based chaos for the kids only.Anyone attempting to gift a grown-up may be asked to explain themselves before the Christmas tribunal.For editing RSVPs and the sacred spread. Civilians: avert your eyes.
