Feeling Really Christmassy

I haven't been so organised for years!


 30 mince pies made, including the pastry! My son thinks I'm mad, but wants a few for his lunch tomorrow.


Nigella's Boozy Christmas Cake baked today. It doesn't smell as nice as the trial run earlier this year. I didn't have any rum, so I added Bacardi, perhaps that is the reason. So I will be adding a little bit of rum later tonight.

This is Beau's new favourite seat in the house. I was on the phone when I took the photo, hence the darkness. He has been playing up recently, strict dog training now being administered. Still chewing but not as much. Only a library book and a bauble off the tree this week!

  3. Lucky you! THe pies and cake look marvellous - I love mincemeat!
    I have never been so disorganized in my life as I have this year - way, way overdone. Time to have a good long hard think about things...
    Merry Christmas to you, and to your loved ones!
