Yup… I didn’t turn on my computer for FIVE days! It’s just not like me… but a recharge and some Christmassyness were just what I needed! We’ve been having nice times and eating nice stuff. We made these gingerbread animals on Christmas Eve…. and I made this tart too.
And I made this chocolate cake, and this bread, and this tortilla and this really lovely honeyed eggplant dish and this delicious panzanella too! Let me know if you want any recipes!
I’m really excited about the coming year, so many nice people and lovely projects! I can’t wait! But I have to – because I started packing yesterday and we are moving in just under two weeks! So… that’s first order of the day, followed by unpacking and then generally getting on with it all!
Today I am cooking something delicious – yet to be decided. Packing. Working on a few things for the BOOK… and catching up on some blogs I have been missing!
I wonder if there is anyone out there…. or if you are all doing Christmassy, holiday-y or beach-y things!

Those gingerbread cookies look adorable. Well done on all the festive cooking. I didn’t have a tree this year. I found a branch walking along Regent’s Canal in London. A Christmas branch! It’s lovely and branch-y and covered in lichen. And lots and lots of birds and white fairy lights. Pretty! Happy Christmas, xxx
you have been cooking up a storm! I’m excited about 2008 too, hope you have a smooth move.
Ooh I’m obsessed with eggplant at the moment so I’d love the recipe for that if you feel like sharing!
I’m here! Hiding from the sun and making crafty things, including some envelopes (!) and secret flowers.
I just had dinner & now all that mouth watering deliciousness makes me hungry all over again.
Oh, Christmas Cheer to you all Mike’s family!!
Ok, so we’re moving & had a quiet Christmas just the 6 of us, & i confess, i packed the linen cupboard ON Christmas Day, but it’s all good . . . plenty of lovely books & games for the children.
One more week & we’re on a plane 5000km to our new home. Love Posie
