Christmas is one of my favourite times of year. Although I've not made masses in the way of seasonal stock this year, there have been a selection of Christmas earrings selling well, and I've spent lots of time drooling over Christmassy things online and in all the beautiful books at work that only seem to be out on the shelves in November and December! (note to self... must find out where they keep them all year round).
Here's me decorating work's enormous Christmas tree in silver & purple... don't know how I ended up at the top of a ladder, but look, even my jumper matches the tree!
Anyway, I've decided that when I finally have space for a tree of my own, it's going to be fairly big, probably artificial as real ones make me sneeze, and the first year it's going to be done in blues, purples and pinks... deep vibrant jewel tones. And as one book told me today, "don't forget, your tree is not fully dressed without a skirt"! Methinks I'll have to start rather earlier than I did this year...
In the true spirit of the season, tonight is my second of three roast dinners this week - little miss piggy, lol! Thursday was Julia's speciality lemon chicken, tonight is beef and tomorrow I'm off to Mum & Dad's for pork with all the trimmings... yum yum!
