Christmas DINNER AT CRATCHIT'S HOUSE
A simple room, in a simple four-room flat, appears. In the flat, Mrs. Cratchit, Peter Cratchit, and
Belinda Cratchit, are preparing for Christmas dinner. Peter stirs a pot over the fire that is filled with
potatoes. Belinda and Mrs. Cratchit lay the cloth on the table, then set out mismatched crockery.
Meg and Will (Cratchits) enter carrying the precious goose between them as if it were unearthed
treasure.
The Cratchits set out their dinner. The young Cratchits pull up chairs and get cutlery. Martha
(Cratchit) pours claret in the mismatched cups. Peter is in charge of the potatoes and Bob and Mrs.
Cratchit put out the few side dishes.
Bob serves the goose and gravy… Mrs. Cratchits watches nervously as Bob puts goose on the last
plate. Scrooge looks over her shoulder.
MRS. CRATCHIT:
Lovely, Bob! Only one tiny bone left. (They all laugh. They all eat.)Finally, Mrs. Cratchit serves the pudding.
The story was called A Christmas Carol and it was written in 1843.
In the visit by Scrooge and the Ghost of Christmas Present they had a small goose with stuffing inside, some mashed potatoes, gravy, applesauce, and a plum pudding cooked in the wash pan! In reality the Cratchits would eat heartily of the enormous turkey sent them by an anonymous donor (Scrooge).
The Cratchet family was preparing a Christmas goose, but Scrooge had the large turkey at the market delivered to them.
The Cratchits' dinner consisted of a small goose, mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, cranberry sauce, and a pudding for dessert in Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol." It was a modest but festive meal, highlighting the warmth and joy of the family gathering.
The Cratchits are depicted as poor in Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" through various descriptions in the story, such as living in a small and run-down house, eating a modest Christmas dinner, and having a father who works hard for a low wage. These details show their financial struggle and hardship.
The French drink wine at Christmas. Usually wine is served with dinner. After dinner people usually drink champagne. Children drink soda at Christmas.
They would open simple presents and sit around a small coal fire which they cooked on as well making their Christmas dinner. At about 11 am Bob would take Tiny Time to Church to celebrate Christmas and on returning home would site with the family, eat their simple dinner and play games
No Christmas dinner
After the family dinner they go to sleep and wake to find presents under the Christmas tree.
The youngest Cratchits want Martha to hide her arrival and surprise the family during dinner. They are excited to see her and keep her visit a secret to make the surprise even more special for everyone.
The French celebrates Christmas inside of their homes as soon as their children wake up and find gifts on the Christmas tree, then afterwards they have a big Christmas dinner!:):):)
First their children find their gifts hanging on the Christmastree,then when they celebrate have a nice big Christmas dinner with their family!!!:):):)
