I do hope all of my lovely readers, followers, lurkers and blogging buddies have had the most peaceful, restful and cosy of festive periods.
I relish the period of calm between Christmas and New Year. I know that some people find it flat and uneventful but I'm happy with that. I'm lucky to say that I don't have to go back to work for another whole, blessed, scrumptious week. Whilst I have much decluttering planned (for our bedroom in particular) for the latter part of the week, I'm using the next couple of days to simply hibernate. It's a time to recharge and regroup. Both my body and my spirit crave some homely, snuggly down time and I'm going to enjoy it without one ounce of guilt. So there! I'm going to camp on the sofa tomorrow and read Jamie, Sophie, the Hairy Bikers and Nigel from cover to cover!
I was thoroughly spoilt at Christmas and the man has been banned from buying me ANYTHING for the next twelve months at least!
My favourite gifts, however, were these:-
| This charm bracelet holds lots of gorgeous little Wiccan charms. It jangles delightfully so any operations of a stealthy nature are well and truly thwarted whilst wearing it! |
I was absolutely delighted to receive this little lady - particularly as she was the very witchy doll I had missed out on in THIS post! Him indoors is a sneaky devil!!!
| Harvey's present was to run riot through the discarded paper! |
| The Kissing Ball referred to in a previous post |
Some marg reduced to 49p for 500g in the Co-op - perfect for our baking.
and some fresh cranberries - two packs for a quid - not quite sure what we'll do with those but we'll freeze them down initially and look for nice recipes in which to use them. Any ideas peeps?
Last of the big spenders we are!!
Did you find anything of worth in the sales?
See you soon!
