I decided that today's temperatures would place too high a demand on our electricity supply to get my attic den warm enough to work in. I did however need to get some sewing done if our Christmas tablemats were to appear this year not next.
So downstairs came my small (ie light) machine into the kitchen - much warmer there - on went the Christmas John Kirkpatrick CDs to get me in the mood and violà.
We felt very festive this evening and had an extra glass of wine!
Had to make mince pies too - we've been invited to a French family Christmas Eve meal tomorrow - excited as Christmas eve is the main event for French families and this is a first for us. We have been told not to bring anything but we are taking crackers bought in England and mince pies as a conversation piece.
