Back now, Doing nothing but everyone's making me feel guilty. Saying that we had a good sort out out yesterday and Christmas is back in the loft. Spent ages in the conservatory as there was glitter everywhere.
Got to daughter's and she had got the dates mixed up - flat pack stuff not coming till next week . nice to see her and the boys though.
Debating whether to watch Ripper Street tonight or not.
Bjay , sounds like you will be busy arranging that ''do' but sure it will be worth it. What about a humongous sherry trifle ?
I'd thought a couple pavlovas, cheese cake and something chocolatey for the birthday girl Daughter is making birthday cake, phew, relief when she volunteered. None of us are trifley.
Thisplan could completely change!
I'll keep you all posted about the menu, most of it is vague at mo.
Oh Lordy. Disaster in the kitchen. I have heavy wooden blinds up at both my kitchen windows. Just pulled the cords to lift tha slats on the small one, and the whole thing fell on my head, ripped the brackets off the wall! I suppose it will let more light in now.
Ooo Becks. not nice! I gave up on kitchen blinds/curtains etc as they get so greasy and grotty. But I am lucky enough to live in a cul de sac behind a hedge. Have just notice how grimy the bathroom blinds are, better get those down to wash
Bjay, I'm alarmed to hear that your peaceful days have gone out the window. I'd better make the most of mine while OH still out earning a crust
I'm having a bit of a do myself on 26th January, birthday, not saying how old going to local pub, well next village, for get together with family and friends, then back to ours for puds, cheese and biscuits and drinks. Thought it would make a nice evening.
You are on the same wavelength as me regarding puds. I'm making lemon cheesecake, individual chocolate mousse, and maybe Italian trifle, all can be made the day before and all are yummy.
Becks, hope you haven't hurt yourself, there's always something to sort out

I'm sure I've got a pavlova lurking in the freezer. Off to investigate.
Becks you will need the blind-man-watch out for the dog
Jean -did you not like the name Black Beauty-or Eugene?
