Thatsmy fave day, i bake and get a little tipsy and then at midnight i sit and wrap all the presents listening to the midnight carol service..

although i remember the 1st year i was on my own (after i split with my ex) and my son was at his dads, i was so upset..as i had no money i decided to bake cakes as presents, but worked my way through 2 bottles of wine..i was drunk in charge of a kitchen..lordy it was a mess :rotfl:

mummytotwo_3

Iv been feeling it a bit this year and not really in the christmas mood. Every sunday i drink half a bottle of wine with the mil!!

OK Aunty Beth's (i always end up aunty beth, its a long story) guide to being festive

1 clean (ish) kitchen
1 Cd player
fave CD's of happy happy joy joy music
baking things
ingredients for said baking
apron
bit of tinsel

and then in each cake or pie add the key ingredients

take a pinch of love
a smattering of laughter
a a slice of humour
a dash of friendship
a smattering of kisses
a glug of smiles
a squirt of memories

with each stir, remember times past of all the above, and imagine all the times to come and then remind your self..
the past is gone you cannot change it,
the future hasnt happened yet

and stay in the moment, its called the present for a reason as its a gift
