so glad im not the only one!!
christmas last year seemed like such a non event for me, which was sad as its my favourite time of year! but what with jacob being born and having a new baby etc, it just all got away from me and was gone in a blink of an eye.
I have a tradition of always making heaps of yummy stuff for my family and friends, im a bit famous for my gingerbread
I love baking, I will usually make the affore mentioned gingerbread and truffles and those mini puddings etc, last year I only got around to making the gingerbread and i never even iced them! everyone kept telling me I wouldnt be able to do it with a new baby, so it was like I was trying to prove a point to myself that I COULD still do it, but I just had to let it go at midnight christmas eve, when I had taken the last batch out the oven.
mum and I used to get silly on champagne and decorate their xmas tree on christmas eve, with lots of mad dancing around the lounge room to "band of gold" and various abba tunes , good times, but since I have moved an hours drive away sadly we havent been able to do it for the last 2 years.
so my big project this year is going to be trying to make a gingerbread house! hopefully im not being too ambitious! I want to make it all from scratch and not do the kit thing....hmm....we will see how that goes!!
