Christmas countdown

I am officially starting to feel Christmassy, after a few tough weeks of having a poorly boy I didn't have the energy to think about Christmas but we've had a few good days so I've managed to catch up with a friends blog and join her in her Christmas countdown.

I tried the dried oranges first and burnt most of them, although the house smelt nice in the process. Here is the recipe.



I then made the mince meat for the first time in my life, which should be ready in one week. It's very easy and smells lovely. Recipe.



I've also made an pomander which is new to me, apparently it drys out leaving a lovely smell and can be used in wardrobes to keep clothes moth free. Here is the recipe.



Then I made the Cinnamon bundles, very easy and looks beautiful on my Christmas tree. Recipe.


If you want any more inspiration I recommend reading this blog, the good enough parent.
