Hi everyone
Many thanks to everyone who posted on my Handmade Monday blog - very interesting and helpful comments about selling at fairs.
Not long before 'the day' when we will be getting up before the sparrows, wondering if we have got enough food the feed the two armies we think are arriving and thinking 'I hope that turkey is defrosted'. I love Christmas, although it seems we all spend such a long time planning, shopping and cooking for the Big Day that when it arrives we are all shattered. Still, it is good fun and a great excuse to abandon the diet. We love this time of year because we get to see friends and family that we may not have managed to see during the year .
Christmas Pie Crafts is getting Christmasy - I know that the name of my business gives the impression that it is Christmas all year round. Falling snow has been added to the blog and there may be other little seasonal bits added over the next 2 - 3 weeks. Christmas is a great time to release my inner child.
Lots of people I know will be putting their Christmas tree up today - a little too early for us. We have given up having a tree inside as Jazz and Daisy feel the need to conquer the tree and remove most of the decorations - we don't mind, but some bits are not exactly cat-friendly. So, we have one in our porch and one shut away in the conservatory - they can see them but from a safe distance. Christmas card writing this week - mammoth task and for many years something we seem to leave until the last minute! This year, we have decided to get them done and posted reasonably early - watch this space though, as the best laid plans, etc, etc.
My last event of this year takes place on Saturday, 3 December:
Addlestone Pre-School Christmas Fair (2.00 pm - 4.00pm) at Brook Hall, Brox Road, Ottershaw, Surrey, KT16 0HG
If you live in the area, please do come along - I understand Father Christmas is visiting this fair.
Enjoy the rest of the week everyone. I will be back with my HM post on Monday.
