Christmas in July

Midmas is a tradition (excuse for a party ) that started in SA sometime in the early nineties. Christmas is in the middle of the summer and so the turkey and ham is served cold with salads or we have a braai and everyone is outside in the sun or on holiday at the beach. If you wear those silly tissue paper hats coloured beads of sweat drip down your forehead and there's no gluwein. And Father Christmas is way too uncomfortable with that fake beard and red velvet suit on. So, we have another party in winter in June or July. With hot roast turkey and gravy and everything including gluwein and a log fire. We decorate with the Christmas stuff we bought on sale at Woolies on the 27th December last year.
Maizefield farm has seen its fair share of these parties over the years and this year we had a great party as always. Pics below...
