Christmas is just
around the corner. The Christmas tree is up and the spiced apple and
cinnamon candle is lit...I can't wait to go back to Yorkshire, be
with my family and snuggle up by the fire. As much as I moan about
the weather and the longer nights, I do enjoy this time of year. It
can be so cosy and relaxing.
For the first time, I
made mince pies. Ok well I didn't make the mincemeat so is that
cheating?! I did make the pastry, and for a first attempt I did a
pretty good job if I do say so myself.
I'm a big kid at heart
and wanted a chocolate advent calendar (don't we all?!)... but I left
it far too late and didn't manage to get one. So to compensate, I
treated myself to the Tanya Burr beauty advent calendar. As I got it
in mid-December, I managed to bag it for £10 which is a bargain. It
has 12 doors and looks so pretty. I intend on doing a review on the
products in the calendar after Christmas.
I'm very much looking
forward to Christmas dinner, bad jokes and lots of chocolate. I am
excited for Christmas, but I know it will all be over so fast and
2018 will be here and another year will start...
Have a good Christmas
everyone, and I will see you in 2018!!
