I literally haven't stopped this week. In anticipation of soon to be arriving relatives and the Christmas festivities my kitchen has been a conveyor belt of mince pies, cranberry and white chocolate cookies, girdlebuster pie, flapjacks, chocolate cup cakes and christmas cake most of which is tucked away safely in the deep freeze to avoid being eaten before the weekend!My Christmas cake is finally complete and I am pretty chuffed with the result. After some deliberation on how to decorate it in the end I opted for a crisp white bow with a few adorning holly leaves. It is definitely my biggest achievement in the kitchen to date and i'm so excited about actually getting to taste it over the coming days. I hope that it will not disappoint.
It's hard to know when to stop baking and eating at this time of year, and so I have decided to continue indefinitely! Inspired by one of my favourite female icons, I leave you with an appropriate quote; 'Never eat more than you can lift' (Miss Piggy). Happy eating!!
