No Christmas Tree :(

I have been formally told that in no uncertain terms that I will NOT be purchasing a Christmas Tree this year :( Bah-humbug I say, although the miserable buggar does have a point about "wasting" £25+ at a time when we are counting every penny and meant to be packing for our holiday to Oz...but how will I feel without my beautiful glass ornaments to ooh and aah over, no flashing twinkling coloured lights that sparkle in the dark, no angel to watch over us during the festive period :( Oh, how sad is all that?

So technically its not snowing but I just love this tag that was made for me!

I've just finished the last of the swaps I got carried away with joining to and am now awaiting the goodies in return for my efforts. 30 different cake recipes should make a neat little book for my kitchen :)
