Where's January?

I can't believe I haven't posted not even one entry during the month of January! Life has passed me by soo quickly. So much happened over Christmas and the New Year....like...all of my family were together for a not-so-often occasion. We enjoyed a visit to the carvery - all 14 of us, then it was desserts back at my home and present opening time - on 29th December - our Christmas Day.

Here's my sweet Little Miss Ashley - my youngest grandchild, enjoying her ice cream at the carvery.

Then all 6 grandchildren open a present together at home....
...and here....I open one of the best presents - a year's supply of Cadbury's drinking chocolate - and supply of biscuits - all in a beautiful hamper.
I made 4 desserts - each of my 3 daughters requests - one each of their favourites....Chocolate Bread and Butter Pudding - made with brioche bread.Mmm.
Strawberry cheesecake with Mascapone cheese.
Strawberry mousse....
...and Sticky Toffee Pudding - not shown.

A good time was had by all and for now...I bid thee farewell. I promise not to leave it so long until the next post.

Toots for now and keep warm.
