A pinch of sugar
A spoon full of Christmas spirit
It's that time of year again !! It's time to get cracking in the kitchen and whip up some of those delicious Christmas treats.
I can taste them now ........
White Christmas
Rocky Road
Rum Balls and Christmas puddings
Just to name a few.
It's a tradition in the Crafty household. Each year
while Christmas Carols play merrily in the background. It's a magical time.
I love it, and although my eldest three boys are less and less enthusiastic about spending time in the kitchen with their mum, I am sure that it is a family tradition that they will remember from their childhood for many years to come.
This year it was left up to just me and the youngest Crafty member, to get elbow deep in chocolate :) wearing our Christmas aprons and stopping every now and then to belt out a Christmas tune on the "Merry Okee" microphone, we had a wonderful day filled with laughter, music and of course baking.
A memory I will cherish forever...............
Linking up this Christmas with the lovely Grace for #FYBF
I love getting my Christmas tunes on and dancing around while making my mince pies. This year I got so carried away though I forgot about them and burnt one batch to a crisp. I am guessing yours was more successful than mine.:-)

Have a lovely Christmas.
Good on you Bec, great pics & memories you can treasure forever. I especially love the Christmas aprons : )
ReplyDeleteLove Christmas cooking traditions. yummy! Taste testing is half the fun.
ReplyDeleteFamily traditions are so great especially at this time of the year. Wishing you all the best for 2013!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great time you both had, I love the photos. It's sad when other family members don't see the preciousness of 'traditions' isn't it. When they are older they will regret not joining in. :-) I'm glad you enjoyed the time with your youngest and I bet he enjoyed having you all to himself.
