Christmas is over, now onto New Years Eve

Well Christmas is over, and a very quiet and peaceful day we had.

Now we are onto New Years eve, a very quiet night it will be, we are usually fast asleep before midnight.

So I hope you all have a very safe and happy New Year.

Christmas cooking and parties

Christmas parties for my daughter have started, off to one tonight for a christmas BBQ.

Today I start my christmas cooking, I wasn't going to make chocolates this year, but perhaps I might make one batch of truffles and peppermint creams. I will post the recipe afterwards as they are new ones, so I need to see if they work.

Ho Ho Ho !!!

christmas lights

Finally at last our christmas lights are up, as we have had non stop rain for days they are up later than usual. I have 2 new lights this year a reindeer in the garden bed outside our window and a flashing "merry christmas" light on our front window.

waxing and christmas

I passed my written test for waxing, I only have the practical tonight then I am finished. Yeh !!

I was in Melbourne on the weekend, I did some christmas shopping, it is madness, people seem to think that it is christmas eve, or they are trying to get all the shopping done early.
