Christmas Eve, cleaning and cooking!

I managed to stay in bed until 6.15 am, so better than the last couple of days. The hand is still being challenging to say the least. Apart from a couple of trips to the shops fairly early I have been indoors. This morning I got on with some general household chores so that we are reasonably organised for Christmas. This afternoon I have done some baking, firstly a sponge as a certain person has a birthday tomorrow. Haven’t made one for a while but it turned out well.
Then mince pies, more than in the photo and some jam filled ‘not mince pies’ for Tina.
I finished the cake off, had some marzipan left for the centre which I know will be popular.

Tina has been very busy today and still has the late service to go, she is leading carols in the memorial garden at the moment. I have been busy today but providing I feel up to it will go to the late service.

  1. 6.15 is still extremely early! Sounds like you’ve kept busy today, so hopefully you’ll be ready for a full nights sleep tonight. If you’re awake Santa won’t leave you anything 😊
    The cake looks great. I’m sure the birthday girl will be happy with that, specially with the slab of marzipan in the middle! The non mince pies will go down well too 😊
    Tina will probably be ready for a couple of those later to keep her going. Sounds like she’s been busy too.
    Soon be Easter 😁

    1. The wrists are aching a bit now, they haven’t seen that much action in quite a while!
      If I go to the late service I hopefully won’t be up quite so early tomorrow.
