A little bit late.

 The time has just flown since I last blogged and the cakes were delicious.  We came back to Essex,a day earlier than we had originally planned.  This meant we were able to take Mum shopping at Lakeside on Wednesday, which has become a bit of a tradition.  The shops were very busy and I didn't find anything to buy- good news for the Bank balance!
On Thursday we went to my daughters for another 'Christmas '.  I have had some lovely presents this year and will post some pictures of three gifts that I want to share with you, later this week.( Hubby didn't buy me any bits for my car this year- what a result!)  The photo above, is of my youngest Grandson enjoying his dessert.
More shopping Friday, this time in Basildon.I  managed to find some cotton rope, which I hope will dye beautifully, not that I have anything to use it on at the moment.
Yesterday was another family meal, my turn to cook for the 11 of us - this time to celebrate the New Year and Mums Birthday which will be on Tuesday.  I was given this bottle of Champers by the parents of my class, for Christmas, and what better reason than this, to drink it!!

Today, we took Mum back home to Buckingham and I have manged to play on my sewing machine this evening for the first time for ages. ;0)
All that is left to say is belated wishes for a Happy New Year to anybody reading this blog.
