Apart from the post holiday chores I have been doing today - I have also finished my Christmas cake. I am delighted with the ribbon around the outside of the cake, as I had been looking for just the right one for ages and I found it Saturday in a Florist shop in Bowness and the red & gold 'merry Christmas' came from a posh baking shop in Bowness as well. They had the most gorgeous black glass cake stand - but at £50 - thought that was slightly too much of an extravagance, which would most probably got broken on the train journey home - so I reluctantly had to leave it in the shop.
However hard I tried - my holly berries - would just not go into really round balls - so we have slightly elongated ones!! The glitter on the holly leaves is edible glitter! - it was one of my 50 presents for my birthday - glad I have found a use for it.
Right off to scrub the red & green colouring off my hands now!
