Anyone else ready to pack up the decorations now the big day has been and gone or is it just me?
I thought I'd do the annual "here's-what-I-got-for-Christmas" post. As with most years, I had no idea what I wanted so what I got was a mixed-bag of things that I asked for. I always have to present Mr M with a list, although he does go off-list and has some creative license. For instance, if I ask for pyjamas, he can pick whatever he likes. He normally does pretty good and this year was no exception.
As with every Christmas I received an assortment of books, which means I really need to ramp up my reading as I've let it slip recently.
Random huh. Yes, I am a Disney geek and have already devoured that last book. Am presently reading Our Queen and thoroughly enjoying it. Naturally I also received cookbooks, only two on my list this year,
Will cook tons from the Jamie book I am sure and the mini cakes was to go with this beauty;
A Wilton mini loaf pan! In addition I also received lots of cupcakes cases and some sprinkles.
As already mentioned, Mr M bought me PJs. It's a Christmas tradition. This year he chose these Cyberjammies from House of Fraser, which are lovely and soft. Only snag is House of Fraser left the security tag on, what a pain! Need to retrieve the receipt from Mr M's desk at work in the new year and get the tag removed.
Other pressies included the following;
My favourite film of the year, a gorgeous FCUK eye and lip palette, oven gloves as I am always losing mine, some marshmallows that apparently my 5 year old wouldn't leave in John Lewis and some a Whittards hot chocolate selection - yum! I also got lots of Body Shop smellies, slippers, a new make-up bag from Accessorize, my own weight in chocolate (Ferrero Rocher, Malteasers, Minstrels, Milk Tray), a set of lip glosses, some nice notepads and pens from Paperchase and lots of Amazon vouchers to spend at my leisure.
I was well and truly spoilt and very happy with my presents this year!
So tell me, what did the big guy bring you this year? If you've done a blog post, leave me the link and I'll check it out!
love & kisses

I blogged a little about Christmas here http://www.thebabywife.com/2011/12/let-it-snow-let-it-snow-let-it-snow.html
ReplyDeleteI also got some cookbooks (Mary Berry), and Bridesmaids on DVD (love that film) Have you had a chance to look at the Peculiar Children book? I don't know if I fancy it or not, I've been swithering over it on Amazon x
I'll check out your post!
ReplyDeleteNot looked at the book yet, I looked at reviews on Amazon before putting it on my list. It sounds weird, but I like weird!
Do you recommend the Disney books? Bit of a geek here too x
