Glitzgirl wrote: » Thanks freshpopcorn ! Can I ask when u made your own did you pre make the night before or on the day you were cooking them ?
freshpopcorn wrote: » I generally made them just before I was eating them but they we were just having them for our supper in the evening. If I was having them on Christmas morning I'd probably have them pre-made. Especially if I was making the little one's. You can get the frozen one's now but will have to wait until the middle of December to get the fresh pre made ones.

I don't have the Toy Show booked off but I have a day off just before it, so I think that will be the day used to put up the tree. Then the Toy Show can be used to relax and have some festive treats.

And trees will be up! Speaking of trees, would I be mad to consider giving small one away and buying a white one? The white tree never appealed to me but the idea of Disney decor on it is starting to work in my head! Glitz, that is Christmassy though! It shows you're getting ready to contribute to kids Christmas! ��

I have piucked up a soft little baby doll and a in the night garden train, A laughing peppa pig and a talking George and a cash register but was just thinking to myself does santa wrap presents in your homes? Our presents were never wrapped when we were kids.
