I was able too…
Take the week off work before Christmas, not to shop not to rest BUT to cook.
I dream of having time to bake all our lovely Christmas food , it takes time and money though , neither which I have !
I always make a Christmas cake and this year for the first time I am making a Christmas pudding, its steaming away at this moment.
Usually I am put off by the 8 hours steaming time, but my friend Caity told me about a Jamie Oliver Recipe that only takes 3 hours to steam.
Christmas eve I shall make Christmas muffins, Ginger biscuits and a Nut Loaf while listening to the Carols from Kings College
Not quite sure when I will ice the cake !

It’s actually been lovely, having time to do just that today. So enjoyed it and the first time I have had a proper time off prior to and after xmas since K was born 17 yrs ago. As nurses, working is a must needed thing to do which we expect. It has been hard work today but very enjoyable. Especially when all the food gets eaten pronto with relish:) Hope you enjoy you Xmas Eve baking.
Lovely dubbly and lots of people to eat it up 🙂
looks good ,,i like puddings
