Christmas

The table looked beautiful for our Christmas celebration, held on Christmas Eve!

We feasted on cold ham, turkey, mini quiche, lobsters and prawns....yummy!

I made some rocky road for the first time. Easy-peasy and super yum!

Santa did a drive-by on Christmas Eve, as is tradition, with lots of lollies to be collected!

  On Christmas morning, the stockings were filled to the brim...

And the floor around the tree was smothered with gifts.

 It didn't take long for the family room to resemble a bomb site! LOL!

And just to remind us of the true meaning of the celebration, I had to share the following....

 I hope you had a wonderful Christmas too.  

Best wishes to all,

Vitamix arrival

I'm so excited; my long desired Vitamix has arrived!!! Yee Ha!!!

 

 

 It came with a hugemungous stack of literature and DVD manuals which on first opening were a tad intimidating. On closer inspection though the books are in every language known to man and the English sections take minutes to read through. Whew!!!

 I first heard about the Vitamix through Louise at Table Tonic. She blogged about this amazing contraption back in September. Using whole foods this beauty can juice, blend, chop, knead, cook and create frozen foods in minutes! I'm hoping it will clean up after itself too. Ha Ha! More information about the Vitamix is available on their site HERE if you're intrigued like I was.

I'm planning on starting one helluva health kick in 2012!

And the best bit? I got this baby free through redemption using the American Express cardholder rewards programme! Woo Hoo!
