| Christmas decorations in the City of London |
Despite saying on Sunday that I was organised for Christmas, it is still a surprise to find it is the 23rd December. Not only is Christmas in two days, 2014 will be over in just over a week. Incredible.
I'm not taking my laptop to the Lake District, so while I'll still be online to some extent, this will be my last post until we're back in London at the start of next week. I hope you all have a wonderful holiday period between now and then. Whether you celebrate Christmas or not, and regardless of how you choose to spend the day - very warm wishes for a happy 25th December and the days around it too.

Love your shots of Xmas decorations! Thanks for including my fruit cake, really hope you like it! Lots of great ideas... Johannas mince pies look amazing. I've made the cinnamon rolls and they're great and easy! Love the look of your apple salad and couscous, and all your sweet dishes. I've made those cardomom cookies a few times and love them. Merry Xmas x
ReplyDeleteGreat to hear you have tried the cinnamon rolls and they're as easy as they sound - and I'm so glad you've enjoyed the cardamom cookies too :-)
DeleteMerry Christmas Kari - beautiful photos and some great links. I hope you have a great christmas away and I hope not taking your laptop will make it a relaxing holiday. Hope to hear about how your christmas dinner goes
ReplyDeleteYou will definitely here :-) Thanks Johanna!
DeleteThank you so much for sharing the link to my Chocolate, Stout and Cranberry teabread. I've been making mini versions of it for gifts. Christmas in the Lake District sounds amazing. Have a great time x
ReplyDeleteThanks for the recipe! I won't have time to make it before Christmas this year but may just have to try it in January as it looks so good :-)
DeleteI've heard the Christmas decorations in London are incredible. That photo of the spiral staircase with the tree at the bottom is stunning. Merry Christmas, Kari to you and all your family xx
ReplyDeleteThe decorations really are quite special. I think it being darker also makes the lights stand out more - one plus of the shorter daylight hours!
DeleteHave a wonderful Christmas Kari!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteHave a wonderful wonderful Christmas!!
ReplyDeleteHappy holidays! Have a great one and eat lots of cookies! :)
ReplyDeleteHa - you too!
DeleteHappy holidays!! Thank you for mentioning my truffles. I have bookmarked your grilled nectarine salad... though sadly I won't get decent nectarines until like 8 months from now, I am so ready to grill them now! Those are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThey are a seasonal fruit, sadly - but hopefully you'll enjoy the salad come summer!
DeleteMerry Christmas!! Look at all of your vegan recipes!! SO nice!! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Cailee!
