Well I never, this is my 50th post!
Many thanks to those of you who pop in. Having read so many superb blogs like
Attic24,
The Vintage Magpie and
Sal's Snippets, I couldn't imagine why anyone would want to read my witterings but felt compelled to try something new. I'm at
that age, you know.
In these few days of reviews and resolutions, I am trying to re-organise my life to include more time for crafting and blogging. My girls are growing up and much as I want to spend every minute with them, the feeling really isn't mutual!!
The resolutions I made in
July have been mainly achieved, so far anyway, so here's to achieving some more!
Happy blogging people!
Well I never, this is my 50th post!
Mad Child needed some 'focus' today so we made some Christmas truffles (with rum), peppermint creams and ginger truffles (with whisky). Hic!
We tarted up some old chocolate boxes
and hey presto, we had a couple of presents! One for our neighbours, who help us out such a lot with those technical things that Marathon Runner doesn't quite understand, and one for a hamper for my Godmother, who we went to see this afternoon.
I wasn't planning on doing a whole hamper; it just sort of escalated from the sweets. Bet she'd like a jar of your marmalade! What about some of that pickle? And those chillies we dried in the summer! The only thing we included not homemade was a small bottle of wine which had been bought for something none of us can remember!
We opted for a big chicken this year as there was only the four of us.
Nom nom nom!
Presents are wrapped and all is well with the world (that might have something to do with the mulled wine and Irish coffee consumed!).
