Put up the Christmas tree yesterday and got into the whole 'jolly' spirit (no sarcasm intended), even flicked on a few christmas carols, you better believe it. Saw some nice christmas shaped shortbread in a magazine and thought I might imitate them with my brilliant (read: bizarre) cookie cutters and make some gingerbread men. Nothing like baking fatty foods to get you in the Christmas spirit.
Yesterday my shopping excursion, albeit slightly unsuccessful, let me steer clear of the World Vision promoters, designed specifically to riddle passers-by (is this a culs-de-sac situation or did I just spell that wrong?) with total guilt. Look, if I want to sponsor a Third World child I will do it of my own free accord, I wanted to yell. But didn't. It's Christmas.
Today, just to prove that good weather never lasts, despite El Nina or a similar made up name intended to impress, and now its raining. Hard. So much for Christmas in the southern hemisphere. But the Christmas tree is up, decorations are out, candles are lit and carols are flowing.
Now, to those biscuits...
