She is most definitely not helping in the kitchen. Ever since the pancake fiasco the morning after everyone went out drinking it has been decided that there's not much she can do with cooking. That doesn't mean she isn't going to miss out on the shenanigans that happen here.

So she is off in a corner, tucked out of the way - recording what's happening. It wouldn't be Christmas without her making a proper record.

Though that doesn't mean she won't help out with something if someone needs it. After all, the preparation of ingredients is something she can do or she's quite excellent at taking things out of the kitchen once they're done.
