Seasonal Items
 
Just got back from Geant with a boot load of 'seasonal items' which include seasonal puddings, advent calendars, mince pies, seasonal tree chocolate hanging things and seasonal cake . . .

Hurray, Riyadh is catching up with the times . . .

Hugely expensive, but as we're here for Christmas worth it!

Now I just need to inject the pud and cake with a little 'something' and away we go.

ps. for other Riyadhites here for the season it's the one attached to Riyadh gallery

The added bonus is that the mall connected to Geant has 'open' coffee shops, so I, a mere woman, can sit out in the open having a coffee with my husband - no more hiding in a curtained cubicle - things are slowly, slowly moving forward. One small step at a time!!

It's the little things in life . . . . .
