Christmas prezzies!

Hello all you lovely people!

Good tidings and festive blessings. Christmas has come and gone and - to steal a turn of phrase - we are now in the non-time until the merriment of New Year's Eve. So, I thought this was the perfect opportunity to write a sneaky little blog post (as the OH entertains himself mis-singing Call Me Maybe while watching the Big Fat Quiz of the Year).

Plus, I was truly spoilt this Christmas, with crafty goodies from my own family and the future in-laws (big thank yous all round), so I couldn't wait to get in the kitchen and play with my new toys. As it was a test-run with my new food processor (thanks Mum), I kept things simple with an ordinary sponge. It took three minutes! Three! Everything in the pot, quick whizz and ready to go. The oven hadn't even warmed up.

Anyways, I spooned the mixture into my new plant pot muffin cases (thanks Erin and Craig), let them cook and then let them cool. Made a minor boob with the icing mix - not enough butter - so my flowers went a bit squishy. But I think you get the picture...


I have also finished another of my crafty projects so I will have to write about that later in the week. Until then, I hope you had a merry Christmas and have a fabulous New Year.

Much Love
