The Xmas Advent Adventures 2011 Day 8 & 9

Hello world!

On the 8th day of xmas my advent said to me....

Do some festive cooking!

I was a bit pressed for time so I made choccie crackles. Whats that I hear you say? "Thats not very festive!!!" ahh but it is when you pour white chocolate on it and top it with a little red m&m - the it looks just like a mini xmas pudding :)

My friend did this last yr with marsbar slice moulded into little pudding shapes ( I presume with an icecream scoop or measuring spoon on smthg similar to create a semi sphere!) and it was so cute I stole the idea but with choccie crackles (cos they are soooo easy to make!) and I repeated it yesterday - I really should have tried it with mars bar slice recipe but forgot! Maybe next year!

On the 9th day of Christmas my advent said to me:

Go to your Mummy's group Xmas party!

Why thank you advent, what a brilliant idea, I think I will!

Chewing on her friend F's lizards tail! She played tug
 of war over the lizard with her bestie Z for a while too!


Best shot I got of her in her outfit - loving her spotty shoes!
Secret santa time -
Pie's first christams present!

Trying to get the card off proved difficult!

Tearing the paper was great!




Theres a gorgeous Snuggle Pot and Cuddle Pie counting
book in there!
Then enjoying her first bon bon

Clearly it was delicious!

And the crown was a perfect fit ;)

See?

Then she managed to swipe a 2nd bon bon to chew on!

Mummy and Pie - terrible photo taken while she tried to steal
the camera out of my hands :)

  1. We make mini Christmas puddings every year by smooshing up a fruit cake, adding melted dark chocolate and mixing then rolling into little balls (very messy but the kids LOVE it)
    then topping with melted white chocolate and some glace cherries! The kids have been nagging so I've promised it's a "this weekend" project...just need to grab some more cherries tomorrow when I take them to do their Christmas shopping!
