Strange you should post about that. I've just come back from World Markets with Mince Pies, Chocolate Oranges and After 8 mints. Thought I would make a start on the Christmas goodies.

Crackers at the weekend then:thumbsup:

I have to force myself to go into Costco so that wouldn't be a problem.

I've had an expensive week though starting to stock up for the in-laws Christmas visit. I hit the Bev-Mo 5c sale on Tuesday, I might have a trip to the Farmers Market on Sunday and get my Christmas Pudding and Brandy Butter. It costs more than the rest of dinner put together but very much worth it:D.

I still have crackers from last year, I brought double as I was planning on having Christmas in the summer when all my family were here..... needless to say I forgot :)

After they left I went to the wardrobe and was like "huhhh oh yeah, I was going to do a summer Christmas - quick everyone come back"......

So between the 2 of us we have 8 crackers to pull - woof :p

I am planning a trip to WM next week, chocolate oranges, roses, celebrations and other delights - plus mince for my mince pies - yum yum yum!!!
