Christmas has never been a happy time for me. My dad died at Christmas when I was six years old and from that time Mum always found Christmas challenging. She also passed away at Christmas, nine years ago. What’s this got to do with Delia, you may ask… Well, I’m endeavouring to change my Christmases and make them a happier time for me and my loved ones, and I use Delia’s amazing Happy Christmas book every year. My Christmas wouldn’t be the same without it, and the recipes all work perfectly, from the planning to the execution. I’m attempting to move forward and make my own traditions – it’s not easy, but Delia is the backbone to this. In Delia we trust.
