    Like the pan fried fillet of salmon. Rather than spend xmas alone, I used to head down to the shelter and hand out food. It could always be worse.

    Volunteering is a great suggestion for Christmas Day...there are so many places that need the help.

    Aw! That's so sad. I would also recommend volunteering on Christmas if you don't have anything to do.

    Oh that lamb on sweet potato and that sweet potatoe and apple soup sound great. I love cilantro and and I am really fond of sweet potatoes. I used to be a big fan of broccoli, so I will need to revisit. (Unfortunately I'm allergic to all seafood and fish oil, though). Great lens! Take Good Care, Rose

    Great ideas & recipes! If being alone is a recurring event though, try connecting with people who want to share those recipes with you. Create a chosen family of friends who need you, too. Try CreatingExtendedFamilies.com

    Christmas is time of family get together having fun enjoy holidays . I am going on a short holiday trip to malpas Kyrenia.

    I've always spent Christmas with my family that is why I do not know how people can spend the holidays by themselves. Regardless, people can make Christmas special with or without someone to share it with. Just look at the variety of dinner treats you've shared here. That's one way to enjoy the holidays. 5*

    Merry Christmas! Hope you could visit my lenses and be a fan of my fb page. Thanks

    I'm never alone as there's always the telly! Christmas means plenty of music and good old stories to make you feel warm and glowing with good will towards man. Ho! Ho! Ho!
    By the way, have a very prosperous NEW YEAR!

    Thanks for a glorious lens. For the first time in 50 years I seriously considered not putting up the Christmas tree. I will be having dinner with friends and family, but wasn't going to go to the trouble of decorating. Your lens has put me in the holiday spirit. :)

    Merry Christmas,
    at this time of the year you, never have to be alone. You can go to church, check your newspapers for the day's happenings and enjoy if you'd like company. If that isn't what you'd like, there are beaches, parks, and what your heart would like to be at Christmas. Many scenic places is safer with a buddy system. Sometimes, you can find at your local library, Christmas CDs and DVD to watch. Here in Hawaii, with a library card you can borrow for free, CDs and there is a minimal charge, for DVD, something like a dollar per DVD. Thus, whatever, your heart craves this Christmas, enjoy! Hope these suggestions, help you to enjoy Christmas too.
    Merry Christmas and a safe and prosperous Happy New Year!

    I saw on Facebook that this was LOTD... I had no idea, as the same one has been showing up all week on my dashboard. Must be a bug. My congratulations (and blessing) to you!

    I'm spending Christmas alone through 'circumstances', not choice. Any dinner for one is hard when you're used to cooking for more, so thanks for these delicious looking suggestions. My Christmas dinner plans (alone) have recently changed. as a new friend just invited me to join her family, but these recipes and recipe links will serve me well for 'dinner for one' throughout the year. Congratulations on LOTD and my holiday wishes to you.

    I'm spending Christmas alone and very much looking forward to the day. Your meal ideas have inspired me. I love the colorful display of sweet potatoes and peas in the lamb dish. I'll have that! Nice lens!

    I hope you have warmth and love and blessings this Christmas. I thought I was going to spend mine alone so I can relate to this, but I am not going to after all. Blessed by an angel!
    Your lens is presented so nicely and the recipes look great!

    OK that is it! I am coming to YOUR house for Christmas dinner. Yumm Yumm. Wonderfully and deliciously presented Gordon. Say, I was thinking. How about a Skype Christmas Dinner with others who are home alone for the Christmas holiday? Us? Gosh, we haven't made any plans -- can you believe that. The very best of the season to you my dear and I wish for you a most fulfilling New Year! It has been my pleasure to get to know you through the power of Squidoo.

    Fantastic lens! A few years back, I spent my first Christmas alone! I loved the experience and celebrated it very special. I actually purchased me a tiny tree decorated it, cooked me a full meal-small turkey and all of the fixings, lite lots of candles and had a glass of wine. I watched my favorite Christmas Movie, and gave thanks that I was able to celebrate the time the way I did. I learned a lot from spending that Christmas the way I did. I was invitied to several places but turned them all down, just so I could spend it alone. Blessed Holidays!!
  • Frankster Dec 17, 2009 @ 11:31 am | delete
    Excellent lens. Your ideas for the person spending Christmas alone are great. Another idea to get into the mood would be to watch a classic Christmas movie.

    You have excellent ideas for Christmas alone - cooking for one or two is difficult and you have included some awesome menues and recipes to make this day - and others - special. Thanks for a great lens.
