Merry Christmas


I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy and Healthy 2013.

I have been busy today delivering plates of fruit and bunches of the Christmas coloured Alstroemeria to friends and people who have helped me over the past year.

The weather is a little cooler and it has been raining most of the day.  The forecast for tomorrow is for rain and on Christmas Day "a chance of a storm" .  This is the remains of the cyclone that hit Samoa and Fiji a week or so ago.

I went to the New World Supermarket to get a couple of items that I missed in yesterday's shop and when I got to the car park wished I had got them earlier as it was practically full.  I managed to find a park and quickly got the items I needed.  Amazingly as I came out of the last aisle there was a teller in front of me that became free and I was through in no time at all.

I came home and have finally made my small Christmas cake (or loaf) - it is in the oven right now and smells delicious.  I usually add whiskey but had forgotten that I used it all up in some whiskey macs over winter so have used brandy today.

  1. Hi Susan, where will you be on Christmas Day? Our families will be at their own homes, maybe hoping Santa will arrive on time. Hope that storm does not deliver, and your days are calm and peaceful. Greetings from Jean
