Thursday Treats: It’s Beginning to Look a lot Like Christmas

This is it, the last Thursday Treats of 2013! I’ll be trying my hardest to take some time away from the internet between Christmas and New Year (who am I kidding?!) so I won’t be posting a Treats post next week. Let’s make this final one a complete blinder!

Who’s getting excited? I’ll tell you who is in our house – Gareth! We went to buy our tree last weekend and despite living in a very modest (read: tiny) two bedroom house, he insisted on buying the biggest tree in the shop, a 7 foot monster! It is practically bursting out of our living room but whatever makes him happy makes me happy. The cats are also enjoying their new playground..!

I’ve got most of my gift buying done now too (woohoo!) and I’m now taking on the role of expert Pinterest-scourer for canapé ideas. I’ve been tasked with making them (from scratch!) for Christmas day with my family. It may not be the most important role, but I’m throwing myself into it wholeheartedly. I am so making these and doing this!
