It´s only 8 days to Xmas. In the cool English climate, you´d be just fine buying your veg today.
When I cook them here, I actually prep all the veg (apart from the roast potatoes) a few days before, and stick them in the freezer. Peel the carrots, cut into what ever shape I want, ziploc bag, freezer. No blanching. The same with the sprouts ( and no, I don´t cut an X in the bottoms!)
One year I did a roasted sweet/sour beetroot for Xmas as well. I partially cooked the beets beforehand, then just finished them off before lunch.
