The Three T's Of Christmas

Three things I love about Christmas.....

The TREE of course - you've already heard the story of the tree so wont elaborate except to say that the star and the gift wrapping are the only two coordinating items on the whole tree! Although if you look closely you will find a blue bauble from Seattle and a dancing fairy in similar colours :)
The TABLE......I love decorating the Christmas table, this year the same as last year except for the addition of the beautiful aqua blue mosaic tree that I picked up in the post Christmas sales in Robe for a song! And a couple of large chalices also on sale but this year from Target.



I forgot to photograph the bonbons made by the girls - you can just see the remnants in the pic below.
The of course comes the TUCKER!
Here's the masterchef at work!
A huge roast lamb, pork with perfect crackling and a weeny turkey roll!
This is all eventually followed by the plum pudding. Baie is becoming quite adept in all aspects of pudding making and unravelling!

Aided of course by Tulle. Baie and Tulle were the servers of the custard and ice-cream.
And here's the pudding in all it's glory, plump full of flavour and fruit and can you see one of the silver coins just poking through the surface?
