Christmas Sewing, Cooking, and Cheer!

MERRY CHRISTMAS



I made the worlds best Trifle this year based on a recipe in Family Circle.
Cake, custard, mixed berries, cream, strawberries and white chocolate curls.
PERFECT!




I sent my Sister her Kris Kringle gift which was an Emmeline Apron and Australian Womans Weekly cookbook Cook.  I loved this apron and have put it on my 'to do' list for me in 2010.



I made the children a Melly and Me  Pippi Pony each.  I can see a new softie become a tradition in the Christmas Stocking each year!  This pattern was very quick, and very easy so big thumbs up!

I was adding the finishing touches to these yesterday afternoon and I decided in the spirit of Christmas Cheer to have a couple (or three) of Pimms.  I had not factored in the effect it would have on me given I have not had a drink in a few years having been either pregnant or feeding. 

I got a little 'Merry' and didn't get around to adding the ears (in case you noticed!).
