Countdown to Christmas-Day 14

Dec 14, 2010 by cafebebemama

Day 14…Nothing new here to report. I am still in my “morning wear”, still wearing my slippers, still in the house at 1:41pm. My best laid plans of getting out and visiting our best mates were scuppered(because of my lack of organisation mind you) so now we have a new plan. Going to the grocery store. Joy.

You see, our oven has gone kaput! The heating element has burned out on it and hubby is going to try to replace it. In the meantime, we have not had an oven since Thursday night. This is tricky, coming up with something to eat that doesn’t involve an oven! We’ve been relying on takeaways and eggs which is getting rather boring. So now it’s time for a trip to the store to see what we can find that can be cooked on the stove top. Thank god we still have that option.

As I continue to be an embarassment to the good housekeeping community and am woefully behind on all things Christmas, I shall resort to the cuteness of my Little Miss to entertain you today. We attended a Christmas market in Stamford on Sunday. There were loads of stalls, crafty people, fair rides and foods to sample. There was also entertainment. We found an Irish Folk group playing some rather sprightly music and Little Miss couldn’t help but get to toe tapping. I really HAVE to enroll her in some sort of dance class next year. This girl’s got rhythm! Enjoy her wiggles and then peruse the plethora of links below for Christmas inspiration.
