this week....










This week I have - 

marinated olives for gifting,

baked loads of biscuits, some for gifting and lots for my sweet tribe to nibble on;
 from top, chocolate gingerbread hearts, cinnamon stars, vanilla crescents,

fermented a batch of elderflower champagne, 

celebrated a birthday,

watched children and grandchild decorate the tree,

 watered the new plants in the poly tunnel, stressed a bit, enjoyed a day or two of rain, shopped for some last minute gifts, rearranged this tiny space to fit in the tree as well as another table to accommodate us all for Christmas dinner and worked on my secret person gift. 

And our computer has been to the fixer upper but is all better now! 

I bet you have all been just as busy as me?
