It is nearly time for the big man to come. I figured this morning it would be pointless pointing out that there is only one more sleep left haha, but I guess I already have oopps.
So this morning I have been out and about doing lasties, not shopping but delivering my little table and chairs to Sarah for the boys to use tomorrow, taking the mother units shopping to her which I collected yesterday, that sort of thing.
Before I headed out to mums this morning I called at the One Stop Shop to see if they had any raisin pancakes for mum. She is rather particle to those and I couldn't get any in Morrisons last night. They didn't have any but I bought her some fresh teacakes instead. Anyway at the checkout, after I had paid I was offered a large box of biscuits or some Thornton Salted Carmel Pearls as a free Christmas gift and thank you from the One Stop Shop.
Strangely enough, I had wondered at the fact that everyone who was coming out of the shop was sporting either biscuits or pearls. So that was a very nice little Christmas nod, so thank you One Stop.
I have begun the cooking process for Boxing Day, so the salmon is in the sink defrosting and the whole gammon is in the slow cooker. I also found some unopened vintage port which I will take down to Sarah tomorrow.
This afternoon I am heading off into town to meet up with my Daugther and Son in law and the grandchildren along with Lees brother and his partner at Uno Mementos Italian Restaurant in the centre. It is their traditional Italian fix before Christmas, and this year Harry requested that I be invited. So pictures tomorrow.
It's Christmas Eve
and I wanted you to know
how much I appreciate
My readers, you make me glow
So here is a Christmas Minion
I'm sending just for you
Hoping that your dreams are fulfilled
in 2022
Happy Christmas everyone.
