Stuff & things

Can't believe it's been so long since I posted - I swear December just zips past before you really know it. Lots of stuff happening - school fair, school plays, my mother arriving for her visit, and lots of other stuff of that sort - seems like one day has just started when all of the sudden it's bedtime and then there it goes all over again!

Spent most of the day today making Christmas cookies (and other types of Christmas baking like Cranberry Orange Bread/Cake and Pumpkin Bread) - house smelled great, but now my feet are tired. Tomorrow should be an easier day, though, with only a Christmas drinks party to go to in the afternoon - and it's just down the road a bit, so we can walk (and therefore drink as much as we want!) and of course the kids can go as it's people from school - there will be dozens of kids there, probably, and they'll all be manic from too much sugar. Ah, Christmas...
