turpsI'm having a very awesome Christmas.
Yesterday is usually a day where we visit relatives and give out presents, but due to James working we decided to create new traditions, so I made cookies. Admittedly they got a little like door stops by the end when I got bored of spooning out dough, but they're very tasty, and incredibly sugary.
Today I made a kick ass dinner -- three kinds of roasted meat, mashed and roasted potatoes, roasted parsnips, stuffing, sprouts with bacon, yorkshire puddings, carrots, peas, two kinds of gravy, pigs in blankets, bacon wrapped cheese -- and got spoiled gift wise. Some of which included four bottles of Snow Fairy, enough Lush stuff to keep me going for months, loads of books, new night wear, a new bag, my traditional teddy bear from James and a kindle.
Corey got a laptop and James and new net book, so at one point we were a family all pouring over our new electrical toys. Corey also got enough clothes to stock a shop and many other things. We've all been really spoiled.
James is on nights tonight, which is weird because it's the first time since we met that he's had to work over Christmas. Still, he went off with pork and stuffing sandwiches and is off from tomorrow, where it's the boxing day buffet with yet more food. I tell you, by the end of these three days I'm going to be in a food coma.
Now I'm sitting in my new pjs and trying to decide between staying online a while or curling up on the couch to watch tv and read. Corey's just taken all his new stuff upstairs, so it's very peaceful here right now. I suspect if I do choose the couch I'll be asleep in seconds.
I hope you've all had fantastic days, whether you celebrate or not ♥

I've made candy today and then I'd dinner at my mother's and now I'm trying to catch up on my reading list. And I just realised it's Sunday so I need to get the weekly rec post ready.
