We had a busy day yesterday, or so it seemed. First job of the day was to make my Christmas Puddings - 8 hours to cook. I oven steam, so much easier and no steamed up kitchen.
Then a walk, nearly a wade in places, lots of flooding but our side of the country fared so much better than most. Then preparing dinner for four, Jamie Olivers' Slow Roast Lamb and Beans, followed by knitting - one surprise WIP completed and another well underway and lastly a night cap.

What a great Christmas Pudding sweater! The real puddings look yummy. I have always wanted to try making them, but have never managed to be organized enough.
ReplyDeleteI NEED a Christmas pudding sweater! Did you improvise the pattern or use one that is available somewhere?
ReplyDeleteYou are such a tease..
ReplyDeleteOkay, now it's official, you are having too much fun. Between the amazing drinks (oh how I missing being able to drink alcohol!) and that fantastic sweater, it looks like you are going to have a great December!
ReplyDeletePlum vodka. I must try this. I looooove infused vodkas.
ReplyDeleteWell, you don't get a chance to get bored, do you? What a wonderful day, doing many good things with your family. Just continue to enjoy.
