I found this site by accident. I thought these Christmas cookies looked delicious, and I think I will try making them next week.
Today has been a "Snow Day" - I spent this morning packing up my Ship Of Fools Secret Santa and my gift for my niece in Rwanda. I visited Paul and Daniele too. Paul is looking very weary, but is in good spirits. Daniele was quite bright too - but the strain is showing. I wish I could do more to help... This afternoon I did my Christmas shopping on Amazon. We are sticking to a £5-ish limit this year, which is quite difficult. I found mugs which you can grafitti yourself for my nephews (yes, OK, they're 22 and 24, but still...you can never have enough mugs!) and foodie stuff for my sister and husband. A book for my brother (QI based!) and a cardigan (not for £5) for mum. I also cracked and bought a couple of Christmas CDs for myself. Including The Carol Symphony [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2sZ26Kv-7Q[/youtube]
Here is a bit of it, with lovely shots of the Lake District.
Tomorrow...we're having a Goodbye lunch for our friends who are going back to the UK on Saturday. And maybe I'll write our Christmas round robin letter and send our Christmas cards. But maybe I won't...!!
