Nigella Lawson might be right about pizza for Christmas

SO Nigella Lawson reckons it's OK to serve pizza and chips on Christmas Day.

She might be right. If your three-year-old refuses to eat anything but chips, what is the point forcing a turkey dinner - with sprouts - down her throat?

That would make Christmas lunch a nightmare for the whole family.

But if your children are older, it does everyone good to celebrate with a special meal.

Anyway, I'm pretty sure Nigella won't be carving up a pizza for guests in her hoose.
