craftyhunnypie Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 Ooo we get loads of them as we are a drop off point for the post. We find them everywhere in the drive, in the holly bushes - literally everywhere! I love that polar bear - very snuggly. Will the cake last until Xmas or will you have to taste test?

Chickvic Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 They are fab and my DD is trying to pinch the gloves and said she would have the cross stitch in her room Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Last year my jam disappeared for months - one way to make a good thing last though, but OH had already dipped into it. Hide your lovelies away from your DD! Edited to add - the glubsies make you feel warm just by looking at them well done SS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chucky Mama Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 ..well, I can explain..it was like this...The bloomin package kept staring at me , the forum was down AND it was my birthday yestereday...my SIL sent a message to say that she would be bringing my present down at Christmas and I thought 'well I'll be getting an extra present on Christmas day and I less on my birthday'......so...without the necessary guidance of my fellow omleteers (because the forum was down - remember, it wasn't my fault).....I OPENED IT!!!! I am so glad actually as it had some christmassy bits in that I want to put out. There was a lovely long scarf that I wore for my posh birthday meal out last night, some very sweet knitted characters and some christmassy scented candles A big thank you to my craftily fantastic Secret Santa, I love them all Please don't judge me - I am a good person really ..hope I don't get put on Santa's naughty list tho' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
