apres le feast

Well I hope y'all had a great time. I stuffed myself silly (pretending to be a turkey?). Why is chocolate just so darn tasty? Still, I did do a 7km walk, so not all bad.
My bro sent me a video clip of Ma, Pa, sis-in-law and baby niece with xmas messages. Cried like a baby. I miss them sooooo much.
I got some cool new toys for crafting, so am going to be busy (theoretically speaking).

Merry Holiday

It's political correctness gone mad! I'd just like to wish everyone a happy every day. Here are some Santas I made when I had some Christmas spirit left!
Talking of which, here is a recipe for Singapore Sling:

35 ml Gin
1 shot Cherry brandy
8 ml Cointreau
10 ml Lime Juice
top up with soda water

Down with Christmas

So it's that time of the year again. I rush around like a blue-assed fly trying to get done all the things that need doing. Then we buy lots of pressies for people who don't want or need them and they do the same for us. What is the point? I like the idea of it being a midwinter feast, but it's summer here so that's out.
Next year I'm boycotting Christmas - feel free to join me!
