Who ate all the shortbread?
I made another batch of macadamia and mandarin shortbread tonight intending to take it along to my book group Christmas get-together, but hubby has requisitioned it for work. Those colleagues had better be grateful...
We are discussing Fear and Trembling by Amelie Nothomb. It is the story of a Belgian girl who spends a year working for a Japanese corporation in Tokyo and I absolutely loved it. But then, I don't know how much of that is because I have worked in Tokyo and found it hugely familiar to read about. I'm looking forward to seeing what the others thought.
It may be tempting fate to say so, but I think I am finished with Christmas shopping (at least on the present procurement front). Now I just need to attend to a couple of wrapping dilemmas (rugby ball ideas anyone?) then it's food food food! My favourite bit.

Have youe ver thought of setting up one of those small businesses? Your cooking is sooo good!
Rugby Ball...my husband would love one of those! He is a huge Rugby nut.
Perhaps you could grab a cardboard box from the grocery/fruit and veg store and wrap it up in that!
Gift bags, baby. They are unphotogenic and cheesy but so easy and you can use them over and over and over. I want to do some sort of eco fabric wrap each year until I remember I am stuck with 50 gift bags from previous Christmases that my family and friends and I keep exchanging back and forth with each other...
I hope youre family has a safe and wonderful holiday!
Have a wonderful christmas -love Julia x
