Well, I’m responding late, but I’m not sure you’re even going to read this! LOL! You may have gone to bed with a cold compress on your forehead, hoping for a Christmas recovery! The story of the trip to the airport almost made me break out in hives. I respond precisely like you do to the idea of any “meet up” in a food court! The noise (and vomit on the table) make it impossible to have even an informal chat. And as for Archie working a split shift–that’s intolerable and ridiculous on Christmas Eve. Hugs to you as you recover and next year I am definitely going for that fairy bread Christmas tree and the reindeer poo! Great for children! And I’d love to promise myself that I’d make that beautiful Christmas cake, but I don’t know that I have the ability. I just adore it, however. ox

Hahaha! Reindeer poo! I bet my kids will love these treats! And your cake looks fabulous. The foot steps idea is so cute. I love those little details.

I had a good chuckle when I first saw the reindeer poo recipe and love that you made some, too. They’d be a big hit a many Christmas celebrations. That’s another great cake that you dreated, Charlie. Love the dog tracks in the snow.
I hope you and your wonderful family share a very Merry Christmas with good health and happiness in the New Year.

Oh my word, why did you bother going to the airport Charlie? Next time feign a migraine BEFORE hand to avoid going, and avoid getting a real one from the stress! We just had my MIL over for lunch (they were all invited but she’s the only one who bothered- Yay!) so we can justifiably not see them for more than a pop-in half hour tomorrow- double Yay!
I hope Archie has checked his pay rates for Christmas day, as it doesn’t automatically count as penalty rates. I learnt that the hard way in hospitality 🙁
I’m so glad you liked the reindeer poo 🙂 It’s a bit of fun and still very yummy
Hope you have lovely day tomorrow sweetie, and that Santa brings you a stress free Christmas! Xox

That’s absolutely horrible! Is it legal to make kids work on Christmas?

I love the ‘tray of poo’. What a great idea and kids will love it because it is chocolate and has the word ‘poo’ in it. Merry Christmas Charlie.
