Did you all had a lovely, peaceful, Christmas day, filled with the people you love, food and general merry making? I had a wonderful day with my family, and thought I'd share a few snaps. Above are pictures of my final iced Christmas cake. I know I talked about the lovely snowflakes on sticks, but when I arrived home there was so much tempting greenery and I couldn't resist a real holly wreath.
I have to admit I photographed the starter, a creamy fish mousse, but was too excited to tuck into the main to remember the photo. It was the traditional turkey dinner.
The pudding pictured is a cranberry and orange trifle, recipe to follow in a few days. We had it for Christmas day, but you could easily have it for New Year instead. It's mouth wateringly delicious - I may have to go and grab a leftover bowl now!
Did everyone else love this years John Lewis advert as much as I did? Receiving a cuddly version of the hare from Ben made me a very happy bunny indeed.
I really hope you all had as lovely a day as I did. Stay tuned later in the week for a few more festive posts.
